Welcome. You will find this site very helpful. There are a ton of great people to keep you motivated. It's really helping me.

Thanks everyone! We will be healthier and happier as we make it though all these changes!

Eating healthy is fun. Start by changing just a few things. Try adding some healthier foods and removing some unhealthy foods. You do t have to jump in with both feet.

Thanks for all the great advice Everyone. I do plan to workout today. I workout 5 times a week for an hour. That will get me 400 extra calories for today. Some of your comments are really funny.

Thanks for all the great advice. I need the encouragement. I need people to say positive things. That's what motivates me.

Great idea. I am under by 177 today. This is unusual though. I have a cold and so I didn't eat much breakfast or lunch. I had a huge dinner.

Anyone...
