Hi all,
I just signed up today. I plan to lose realistically 45, ideally 55 pounds. My problem is that I get too excited about a program and shortly after that I fall off the wagon... So, I will be needing a lot of support please?! :)
Thanks!
Sibella

    I'm new here as well, with roughly the same weight loss goal. I do the same as you, get excited and ALWAYS fall off the wagon. I'm pretty fed up right now, so hopefully I can stick to this.
  • I finished my first week here and can totally identify with you. It's so hard to keep the motivation up for the long haul. But I'm determined to feel and look better this time. Here for support!

    Support, reporting for duty... = )
    I've only been at my goal, truthfully, for a month. I have a long road to travel, and would enjoy all the suppoort I can get, as well!
    I'm hoping some accountability will keep me on track - in the past, when I fell off the wagon (rolled off, maybe..lol) - well, no one really knew it because I'd never declared a desire to lose.
    Trying plan B now - let EVERYBODY know, even those I'll never meet = ).
    So, here's to supporting each other and meeting our goals!

    Another newbie here too. It looks like we need to lose close to the same weight so maybe we can both get inspiration here. I've tried Sparkpeople and WW before so I'm hoping this one works for me.
