Hi...I am new here. I have such high goals for myself. I need to lose half of my weight. But I have faith in myself that I can indeed do it. I am tired of being fat. I am tired of looking and eating like a pig.

well, what is your plan? Planning is a way to prevent some of the road blocks that comes up with many people.

Hey Darci,

Welcome here!!! You have done so great already, good for you. Keep it up.

There is an open chat here on Wednesday nights, 9pm your time, I lead it, come on over if you like.

Hi, Darcie, welcome to Diettalk. Nice to see you have started a journal, that is a great way to meet new friends and get lots of advice.

You have made a great start on whatever plan you are using. Most of us here are pretty well sticking to healthy eating and exercise as our chief method of losing weight, plus drinking lots of water and watching the size of our food portions.

At any rate, good luck to you in our continued weight loss.

Hey Darci,

I enjoyed our chat tonight, sorry you got cut off or whatever happened.

Keep up your great work, you have done so well already this year.

HOpe to meet up again soon.

Hi friends,
It really feels good to have messages in this journal. I feel like people actually care what I have to say and it feels great. Feels great to know people are pulling for me!!!
I really want to get slim. I want to see myself on the beach in a bikini!!!

Hi Darci :wave:

Welcome to DT :D

I too am a calorie counter, however I am still figuring it out as I go - pretty new to me.

I hope you find some time to read/post in other journals here at DT, and get to know more of us - it really is a wonderful place to come to for support!

TOGETHER we CAN do this!!!!!!! :)
