Official re-start!
I joined last year in hopes of losing some weight in time to wear a nice dress for my university graduation and successfully lost almost 20lbs which was a big deal having had so many failed attempts with other methods.

New motivation for a new year!
I started this last fall and had relatively good results. Like many others, the new year symbolizes a new start on positive changes I had to take a long break due to a blur of events in Nov & December.

Graduating in a few days.
I just wanted to share my blog post. I'll be graduating in a few days and it's a big step for me. A lot of my weight has come from my depression and isolation during my university years.

Water advice!
I'm a waterholic. It's my drink of choice 99% of the time. I was just wondering if there's such a thing as drinking too much water? Not only for daily amounts but if choosing to consistently drink pretty much only water has any bad effects? My mother has brought up the issue of drinking too much can lead to higher chances…

I'm sure its come up time and time again in the forum but I was wondering if anyone had any advice, tips, own stories regarding trying to live a healthier life despite having a chocolate addiction/cravings.

It's time to get serious! my weight loss journey begins.
Hi all, I just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully find others to add as a support system. I've thought of myself and fat and overweight my entire life.
