I just joined last night. I wanted to just say hi to everybody. I'm trying to lose weight so that I'll be healthy and not be obese:(. I just need to do something about this weight already. I have been using my weight as an excuse not to join in on things and it's like I've had my life on hold with the line of thinking that...I'm too fat to join in. I'll be able to do those things when I lose the weight. That type of thinking has made me miss out on some great opportunities. I just want to lose the weight so that I won't have anything to hide behind anymore and most importantly I want to lose it so that I'll be healthier. The biggest problem I have is staying motivated so I'm hoping this site will help me out with that. Sorry this post turned out to be much longer than I thought it would be:). Bye!
You stated several very good reasons to stay motivated. :) Welcome to the site and pitch in whenever you want. Some awfully good folks with no ulterior motive other than to help.
