hi barbarajones! happy to have you here

[barbarajones27]

hi, well where to start...my name is Barbara and i was born in 1979, making me 28 this year, as with most people, my story has been one of those you'll have all heard numerous times, put on weight as a child, my mum saying it was puppy fat, but kids saying otherwise, then trying so hard to lose the weight but failing, trying alsorts of diets, and not sticking to them, hopefully now i've found one that is going to work for me, because i feel like i need support and this programme will hopefully give me the extra bit of oomph that i need, is there anywhere where i can diarise my exploits as well as explain the programme i'm on?

thanks

feel free to post here or anywhere you can even start a new thread if you want. Also, if you go into user control panel (user CP) at the top of the page you can edit your profile and start a ticker for yourself that will keep track of your start weight, your goal, and where you stand right now.

Barbara, our blog forum is where we encourage everyone to track their progress as they try to lose weight (keep track of weight changes, eating habits and exercise). You say you found a diet that is going to work for you, what exactly is this diet you speak? We try to encourage people to make permanent lifestyle changes because at the end of the day a diet is a quick fix, and not a permanent solution.

You came to the right place for support, and we're all here to cheer you along the way!

Hi barbarajones27! I went through the same thing as a child, and my mom told me the same things to make me feel better about myself, but the kids let me know what the real world thought of me.

We're all here to fight the same battle and help each other out. Please do share your progress and thoughts with us; we're a great support group!
