New and scared!

[loverlygal]

Hey everyone,
Have always been VERY overweight and have decided to give dieting yet another try, despite having virtually no willpower and a stressful job!
Am hoping that posting on forums like this one will make the difference between my giving up within a couple of weeks and going the whole hog and losing at least a couple of stone!
Is anyone else in the same sort of situation? Let me know, would love the moral support!

Hello loverlygal

I too have a stressful job and a lot of weight to lose, but I am determined to lose it this year for once and for all. I am thinking of all the other times that I started and stopped...I would have been slim so many years ago. No regrets though, I just want to make it happen this year. I have seen the term "stone" used loosely around this board....I figure it is maybe something like 5Kg or 10lbs. I am from the U.S. and it is not a term that I am familiar with. I would wish you success in losing stones...but i do not know what they are so I wish you weight loss success this year and just know that you are not alone in this battle!!

Cheers
