Hey all, I just wanted to swing by and wish everyone a great second day for tomorrow!! Don't skip meals, eat up, and really educate yourselves about nutrition. You are going to learn how to really pull this off, so be prepared for greatness!!
Hugs, and good luck!

Hi Tammi,
If I may offer a suggestion... it is not a good idea to skip meals. Doing that will slow your metabolism down because your body thinks it will have to conserve energy because you haven't eaten. Even if you have a piece of fruit or a granola bar, it would be a better choice.
you mentioned a diet, take the opportunity to read the nutrition section under resource center. One of the great things about this website is that by plugging in what you eat everyday and trying to stay in the proper range as far as calories, fats, carbs and protein, you will find yourself developing healthy eating habits and making good choices.
Remember that diets are temporary fixes and not the answer to living a healthy life. Trust me I know, I have tried most of the diets out there. I lost weight initially, but gained the weight back plus more because I went back to eating the way I always did.
Look at it as if you are making a lifestyle change because that is what it is.
Good luck on your journey and know that there are a whole bunch of people out here who are ready to lend you support.
Regards,
Jerry

Hi Everyone, I just completed Day 1 today too. I skipped breakfast, because I usually bring it to work, I had a salad for lunch and a salad for dinner along with a glass of red wine. I am following the Suzanne Somers diet plan, I had great success on it a few years back, but then I just quit and here I am again. I feel really motivated and am glad I found this site. I look foward to sharing my progress and seeing the progress of others.
Thanks,
Tami

Welcome to the board! I've been here a week, and it's going well so far. You're so lucky to be a manager at Curves! You've got access to all that equipment at your fingertips.
Umm..I don't remember how I got the weight tracker thing. I think when you set up your account?
