Beginning

I am a new member and feel self-conscious about typing a message to unknown people, but have struggled alone unsuccessfully forever, it seems, with being too heavy. It seems like the time to try something new and recognize that I need help...

Welcome!!!  I am new as well and don't have many friends, but there are a lot of great people around here that I've met already and you will too! 

With support and motivation you will surely achieve your goals If you need to chat just let me know, I'm around here every day reading posts to help lose my weight.  There's a lot of great ideas to help out around here.

Good luck!!!

Thanks. I'll chat with you sometime, you will achieve your goals, too.
