Actually I'm not much of a "joiner" but I also accept, that had I been able to loose weight on my own I would have done it already. I'm glad you folks are here.

I do not use a scale because they tend to frustrate me, but I would say that I'm about 75lbs over fat. I am able to loose weight easily but keeping it off is the big issue. I am, without question, addicted to sugar! I have used the Akins program in the past with success but once I eat that first sugary treat, I'm a goner. So here I am again. This time getting some needed support.

Congratulations you can do it!
If you need anything at all just hollar. I dont know alot, but I have been overweight for a while myself and may have a few tips or so. This is definately the right place to be for support!
