Hi, I am NEW!!!

Hi everyone!  SO, I am a WLS drop out.  I decided to give it a serious try on my own.  I know it's not going to be easy but I HAVE to do this.  All the girls/guys on the RNY board have been so wonderful and so supportive!  Just a truly awesome group of people.  So far, I have lost 6 lbs in less than one week.  I know it will slow but I am off to a good start!  I have a very supportive family and positive people all around.  I am looking forward to meet ing all of you and share ideas and thoughts - or just SCREAM.  LOL!! xo, J

Welcome Jen! Congrats on your 6 lbs! 

Welcome and congrats! Beth

Welcome Jen!!   We're cooler than the RNYers!! Hahah, just kidding of course!  We're a close group here and always willing to grow the family!  Congrats on your loss and welcome to the boards! 

Mostly, we whine, but once in a while, we say cool stuff! Welcome. You have a thin gorgeous face! Be glad of that.  Mine gets errr pumkinlike with any extra weight. Only adds to my personal joy. It is definitely worth a try to do what you will have to do after WLS. So glad you stopped in.  Now let's hear some rah rahs and rants!

6lbs!  Awesome start!

Welcome to the board!

Hey Jen, I'm kinda new here myself.  Neecee says they whine a lot, and I think that's kind of the greatest part!  Hearing what other people are going through helps me to know that I am not alone. Wow six pounds, that shows you that it can be done!  I lost 117 pounds, so if I can do it, anyone can. I pray that you lose all of the weight that you want to lose. Mary

Welcome! I've been hangin around since early August. I started WW  a couple weeks later and they just can't get rid of me LOL Congrats on the  great start! You are  doing really great! Hope to see and hear more from you as the days go forward!

Good morning everyone!!  Did I mention I hate getting up early?  Trying to change that!  Thanks so much for the welcome.  I am truly amazed and inspired by your stories and weight loss.  I am so excited to start my journey.  My goal right now is 40-50 lbs loss by the end of the year.  I am not even looking past that.  Little steps work for me. Well, I am off to work out for at least 20 minutes this morning.  That will wake me up! xoxo, J

Hi Jen, and welcome!  You'll find a lot of support and a great network of friends here.  I, too have decided to give this one last try before WLS (doing WW for the thousandth time...LOL).  Sounds like you're on the right track...congratulations on your 6lb!  Good start! Sherrie
