Welcome to the board, you've come to the best place for encouragement, advice, laughs...eveything you'll need to help you reach goal.

You and I are very similiar in our goals... I started at 236 lbs and I'm 5'1". Sometimes I still can't hardly believe I've almost lost 50 pounds. And believe me... if I'm doing this, I know you can!

Congrats on making the decision to take care of yourselves. Make sure you get the book and read it, carry it with you. Drink lots of water and exercise. You'll be successful!

And don't be afraid to ask any question on these boards. You'll get lots of valuable info from the experts....they've been lifesavers for me!
