" Hi! I started out at 334. I'm about a hundred less now. This year I plan to lose 50 more.

Learn to love apples. Eat three a day if you can afford them! Snack on high-fiber cereal instead of chips or cookies while watching TV. I love Fiber One Honey Cluster (packs a whopping 13 gms. of fiber per cup).

I'd be happy to help. Emotional problems, diet tips, anything. Feel free to vent! :) "

" WElcome...Its best to start slow with changes that you can live with. If I try to do too much as far as exercise or cut too much foods out then I gove up!

I am however starting back since having a baby and kinda waited a while since she is now almost 10mos! LOL GOOD LUCK "

" Weight loss can be overwhelming,
Start at the beginning.
Mabie make a goal of having a healthy breakfast with loow fat milk every morning and see how you go. The mabie when you get that down pat, make a goal to drink 8 glasses of water a day. Then Make a goal (if you don't do much exercise now ) to walk around the block.

Hope this helps some. Keep me updated with your progress can't wait to hear from you. "
