welcome serenityh,

This is a great place to find support for your weight loss journey. I have been on the board for about 6 years. Though I have been on and off my diet all that time, I have lost a total of 93 pounds and need to lose another 29 to reach my goal of 145 pounds.

So, when I started I had 122 pounds to lose. I practice general low carb and started out doing Atkins for several years. You can do this. We have people on this board who practice keto, Atkins, general low carb, IF....you name it. I have learned much from the postings of others and check the board several times a week for inspiration.

I encourage you to keep a journal on this board to chronicle your journey....it helps!

Best of luck!
