    Welcome! I am not new... been here for a few years now... I have lost 50 pounds and maintained that loss... but still have 35 or so to go! I have met great friends here and the motivation just keeps me logging in! Good Luck with your goals!!

    Welcome Jeff!
    I am fairly new here still - I think this is my third week. I have lost 6 pounds and have about 24 more to go - add me as a friend and we can motivate one another! I think half the battle is DECIDING in your MIND that you are really really ready!!! Congratulations on making a great decision!!!! MFP ROCKS!!!!! YOU CAN DO THIS!

    Hi Jeff! You have made the first step in the right direction! I think that first step,coming to a realization and making the commitment is the one of the hardest. Welcome to MFP!
