Hello all...

Today I had started on a strict ,very low calorie ,high fiber plan, plus doing an hour on dancing for my fitness efforts. I am healthy and my doctor suggests this I watch calories and portions. I plan my daily menus and my motto "Eat less,Exercise More" . I am giving up sugar, breads and junk foods....

I weigh 440 and my ideal weight goal is 150...I am not new to weight loss land. Had success in the past with Richard Simmons and Slim Fast shakes and now I am hopeful and more determined on succeeding with a very low calorie eating plan.

My fitness is walking and dancing!!! I will do at night, which my fitness time without any siblings interuption.

I need need buddies on talking about dieting and fitness and offer moral kind support. I am the only one in my household who is morbid obese...which makes it very lonely and tough,which my family don't understand what obese person deals with.

So who is with me and Share our efforts daily thru Private messages. I am going to check on here daily and often. Any takers ?? Looking forward on hearing and LET'S SHED THIS WEIGHT OFF FOR GOOD!!!! :) Liliann

The most important thing is that you have taken the steps and are on the road to becoming healthy. That is first and foremost. Everyone has opinions of how you should get there and while I'm sure they are trying to be helpful you have to find that one thing that works for you. My doctor, the same one that wanted me to do the bypass, also suggest that he didn't want to see me lose more than 1-2 pounds per month. Are you kidding me? If I didn't see faster results than that I never would have stuck to it! lol I did so many other programs, and finally found one that worked (for me) See, that's the real key. What will work for you? My program may not be it, other programs may not be it, but if you have found one that is working, just embrace it and hang on for the ride! After losing 116 pounds I feel great!!! No pills, no shots, no crazy exercise programs. I just got a whole lot more active! Good for you on starting this journey, even if our program is not the same, count on me to help when you need support.

I do not accept negative people in my life and I don't stay on this board much because there are a couple of people who have taken ownership of it and don't allow others to talk and help if they don't know them. Hopefully that won't happen again... Everyone will assume I'm selling something and I'm not. I'm sharing what I did. I became a coach to help others do the same thing.

Congratulations again on starting, add me to your list of supporters!
