Hi Everyone:
I am a new member to this site. I am 24 years old, happily married, and have a 6 year old son. I am 5'2 and currently weigh about 170 give or take a couple of pounds. I am looking to initially lose 20 pounds. When I reach that goal, I will decide my next step. I have been on other Web sites where they claim to offer support, but they already have their own little cliques and they don't like newcomers. It kind of reminds me of high school. Like many of you, I joined for to give and receive support and motivation. I have read a lot of forums before deciding to join. All of you seem really inspirational and that made me think I could actually do it.
I have tried (and failed) many weight loss methods. I just lose hope when I don't see results. Like most of you, I have days when I need the encouragement to do what I already know is healthy. Also, the challenges peaked my interest. I think that could just be the motivation I need. Some of the other Web sites don't offer challenges. Well, good luck to you all to reach your goal. I am looking forward to reaching mine.

OK - I really just can't call you lilpiglet! So, you're Lil to me

Welcome to the forum here at the WLF - sometimes places might feel 'cliqueish' simply because members have known each other awhile - but I hope everyone here knows that the more the merrier - we're here to help support, motivate and encourage anyone who wants to get fit and healthy.

Just know that you CAN lose weight - it's a numbers game, offset with consistency. Each pound comes off the same as any other - one at a time

You CAN do it
