Hi,
I'm new here (obviously, since I just wrote that in the subject heading!) I see everyone here that wants to lose a lot and I just want to be sure that I can be accepted too even though I only need to lose a little. I am 5'0 and 122 right now. My goal is 105. All through high school I used to be like 90-98 lbs. (Of course I was running and dancing and doing other sports where it's necessary to be small.) Also my family is REALLY tiny, none over 5'2 or 100 lbs!!! I'm just saying this so you won't think my goal is unhealthy or anything. We all are small boned and look good at this weight. I just want to take off some of the extra pounds I've put on in college (probably mostly late-night pizza and beer!)
So I know I don't have TOO much to lose, but I really would feel better about myself if I could and I think that's what's important right?
Thanks for listening!

You're right, Snow Angel...... being healthy and feeling good about yourself is what it's all about and since everyone is different, then the numbers definitely vary from person to person. So don't worry about the numbers, but just start eating healthy and doing some kind of exercize and drinking at least 64 ounces of water a day. Taht way you'll start feeling a bit better and the weight will start dropping. You are definitely accepted here...... we all are! Welcome and hope to hear more from you again soon. Have a great Christmas if I don't see you in chat before that!

Here's to healthy and happy!

Welcome to our family Snow Angel. And of course you are welcome here with open arms to boot. The more the merrier as the saying goes.

Welcome Snow Angel. I think you are very smart to try to lose the weight now and not let it keep getting higher and higher.

Merry Christmas!

Hi SnowAngel,
I am also relatively new to D.T. and I have found it the most supportive and welcoming community you can imagine. I am sure you will enjoy your visits here as much as I do and I also look forward to hearing more from you.
Regards,
Joan
