Thank you!

I've been lurking for a while andreally wanted to thank everyone who participates on this board. You guys are awesome no BS no shortcut crash dieters, and it's really refreshing.

At first I thought, I'd be able to find "quick tips"etc and found that was not the case. After reading about myfitnesspal, I started on 9/2. Since then I've lost 4lbs, by doing little things like walking to the next bus stop instead of the closest one to where I work, eating right, and taking my vitamins. Wedding isn't until 5/18/13, but I'm looking to just maintain over the holidays and hopefully get into my dress when it arrives.

Great job!  I'm glad you are finding success... the hard work really does pay off and is much more rewarding than a quick "fix".  Keep it up!

Agreed - keep up the great work! One day at a time and eventually we get to our goals

Welcome! And you're right - this is about a lifestyle change, not just a quick fix. We've probably tried it before and it didn't work, so now we're doing it the right way. I know I culd probably lose weight faster than I am, but I know that this way it's more likely to stay off!

Stick around, and keep up updated.

What PPs said and thanks for coming out of the woodwork and speaking up. The more we can all engage the more we stay motivated.
