What a wonderful post !!

You are already half way there! You have good habits, now you just need to do baby steps, make friends, learn to eat smaller portions, but learn this isn't a "diet", it is a lifestyle.

We are very glad you are here !!

Hi, folks. I consider myself to have become a fairly healthy lifestyler - not running any marathons, not a vegan or on a highly restricted calorie diet - but I swim for 45 minutes 2 - 3 times a week, walk or bike to work (30 mins or 20 mins round trip, respectively), water and seltzer are my beverages of choice; I always eat breakfast, avoid transfats like the plague ( I read labels, even though it's become more difficult since the print has gotten smaller over the years...); yet I remain 50 pounds overweight. (My top weight has been +80, and I've been there several times - have gotten 20 - 30 lbs off via Weight Watchers and South Beach, but I don't seem to be motivated to sustain either program as a lifestyle....) - so here I am, not wanting to invest my hard-earned money into websites and programs that take me so far....I find that I struggle just to maintain being this overweight! Yes, I love to eat, and I know I can and should eat smaller portions - but I generally make healthy choices, and it's not as if I'm eating 2 and 3 helpings of anything - the only prioirites greater for me now than getting to a healthier and more attractive weight is sustaining my mental health, my career, and my relationships. I'm ready to give it another try.....
