New, wanted to say hello!

Options
So I sm just getting started on getting healthier, and I just wanted to say hello. I have a large goal of about 80 pounds over all, but for now just doing small goals so it isn't too overwhelming for me at the start. A little about me... I am a newlywed in KY. I am 30 years old and work in medical records at a mental health hospital. Together my husband and I enjoy hiking, rafting, touring the bourbon trail here in KY. We also like to travel, watching UK basketball and Steelers Football. Anyway just wanted to say hello. Hope all is well with everyone!

    Hi All,
    I'm new here too but not new to weight loss. I was successful with WW but put on a few pounds in nursing school. This site is so much easier to use than WW and best of all.....its FREE! Love the forums, love the app for my Iphone. The only thing it doesn't have is recipes so if you want some great ones, you can go to skinnytaste.com. Wonderful stuff on there. Remember there is no trick to weight loss, just move more and eat less. Good luck All!!!
