Hello! and Thanks!

Postby 2FeelGood » June 26th, 2006, 8:01 am

Hi,

I just wanted to introduce myself. I am starting my weight-loss journey today. Right now, my goal is to loose 50 pounds and get into normal weight range....and not be called an overweight/obese person. I have been lurking on this website for quite some time and finally decided to register and blog my experiences!

I want to also thank the hosts of this website for letting everyone be a part of it for free! That's really such a kind gesture! Also, I like to thank everyone well in advance, for all the motivation and encouragement I am gonna get on this site!

Well, so, here I go now! Let's see where this journey will take me....hopefully to thin'n'healthy-ville.

Hi there,
Welcome to this great forum. Since you've been "lurking" for a bit you know helpful, kind and loving perfectly describes the members. Keep posting and let us all know how you're doing. Some of us will be heading off to conference this week so we'll be absent for a bit. But when we get back we'll be checking on you.

Welcome Momma! Congrats on taking that first step. Time will fly by, and as long as you follow the plan, the weight will fall off faster than you can imagine. It seems like just yesterday that I started, but it’s been 45 days and 32.5 lbs and I am having the time of my life!! :D Literally…I have so much energy I can hardly contain it. My clothes fit better, I’m ALWAYS in such a good mood, and I’ve met some WONDERFUL people here that totally “get” my journey. (I LOVE the folks here).

Now that’s all the good stuff that awaits you once you get through this week…My first week I totally depended on my health advisor (make sure you get one of these if you don’t already have one. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE mine) and my MF buddies to get through it. They got me through it and then some.

You’ll do great, just keep your eyes on the prize!

Welcome to the best support group you could ask for!

As far as the 50 pounds - you will be amazed at how quickly this comes off. Word of advice, stick with the program 100% and the pounds will literally fall off. If you deviate, it just takes longer.

Come to us and share your successes, your fallbacks, etc. We are all there to applaude you and/or dust you off when you fall.

Good luck!!
