Welcome Roxanne. You have found the right place. Lots of friendly supportive people on here. No matter what you might think, at 22, nothing is a last resort. My mother-in-law started this at 70!

Hello Roxanne,
22 and a last resort? I wish I would have started this when I was 22. In many ways you ware way ahead of the game.

Something that really helps me is not to think of the big picture too much, not to let myself get too caught up in the "have toos," the "should dos." I just take it one day at a time. Then one day turns into a week, one week turns to a month, and so on and so forth. I just make sure I do the right thing right now.

Welcome aboard, Roxanne, we're all in the same boat.

Welcome from another newbie! Have you ever tried to quit a bad habit? Well it's the same type of journey. You're substituting a good behavior instead of repeating old ways. Be sure to drop by the Triple Digits Club. Lots of nice people and all in the same boat.

Congratulations on your 10lbs loss Roxanne! You're doing great!

The thing that I find has really helped me along the way is to make mini-goals. Each mini-goal I meet is another step on the way to my final goal. So far, I have lost 50lbs and I don't think I could have done it without minding the mini-goals.

We are here to support you! Don't ever hesitate to ask questions.
