Hi Everyone!

Hi everyone! I'm new. I just got on about 5 mins ago. It's great to be here. Hopefully you guys can motivate me to lose some weight! I was just wondering, what kind of diets/plans/exercise did you do to achieve such success? It takes so much effort for me to lose 5lbs. Are there any good tips?

Welcome and good luck! Everyone here is really great. They're so supportive, not only in weight loss but just life situations. I know that I personally get a lot of my motivation from this forum. My plan is exercise and counting calories. I try to stay around 1200 calories per day. It does take a lot of effort but you'll get there. Just try. Stick around here and you'll be motivated in no time!

i think you will find that there is no set diet plan as everyone has their own methods that work best for them. For example, Coastergirl here, does 1200 calories a day, but i know someone else on the forum does the "eat a ton" plan (i'm not sure what it's actually called, but it's something like that). Myself, i eat 6 small meals a day, but i don't change the foods that i normally eat. Same goes for the exercises that people do ... it's what works best for you.

Welcome! It's great that you joined. I also just recently joined. It's so great to have a place outside of your "normal" life to get support in losing weight or whatever it is that you need help with. I go to Weight Watchers, but I also add in my own little things. For example, I drink 1/2 my body weight in fluid ounces of water daily, more if I exercise. I eat either a fruit or veggie every 2 hours...etc. etc. I also work out a lot. Look around at everything, and you can try every one's plan but whatever you like best or whatever fits your life will work for you. You can do it!
