Hi.. I'm new.

[DVC Jen]

Hi everyone. I am Jennifer and I have been lurking here on the Dis board for a long time. I decided to come out and say hi.

I began my own personal "challenge about a week ago. I want to lose about 60 pounds total. I have lost a lot of weight in the past and unfortunately because of stress I put it back on.

Hopefully by getting as much support as possible and working with others with a common goal I will not only lose it again, but keep it off.

PM me if you need any encouragement or have any questions. What plan are you following? You will find a whole variety of weight loss plans represented here.

Hi Jennifer! Glad to hear you are no longer "lurking." As you probably already know, this is a great place to be. Folks here are the BEST and you can get all of the support you need. "Talking" is a good step in the right direction. Good luck in your journey.

Remember it is your choice and you are worth it!

Another welcome to you Jennifer!

This is a great board to come to if you are looking for support. The people on the WISH board are awesome and so inspiring! Which plan are you following? Let us know so we can cheer you on. Come back often, there is usually someone around to lend a hearing "ear". I look forward to your posts!

Thanks. I guess you could say I am following the "Jennifer plan". :lol: I am not following any of the popular diets. I am watching what I eat.. that means total calories, fat, portion control and excersizing every day.

It has always worked for me in the past.. until I stopped and went back to my old habits. This is my third time and I do NOT want to slip again. But they always say..third time is a charm right?

Welcome to WISH! Sounds like you and I use the same eating plan. I'm just trying to eat healthy, watch the calories, keep my fat intake low. It works for me.

Hope to see you 'round WISH a lot! It's a great gang here!

Hi Jennifer and WELCOME! I joined WISH about a week ago, looking for help in maintaing my weight loss--in the last 15 years, I have gained and lost over 800 pounds and refuse to put myself through all the yo-yoing again! I've lost 110 pounds in the last 15 months (the most I've ever lost at one time by over double), and am determined to keep it off this time. I kind of did it on the Kim Plan making sure to keep my protein high, but not really denying myself either. I've also committed to exercising 6-7 times a week, and I've been able to do that so far! The WISH Board is a very supportive and welcoming place, and I'm glad you're here! Best wishes as you work towards your healthier-living goals, and I'm looking forward to your posts!

Welcome to the DIS, <b>DVC Jen</b> and a very special welcome to WISH. I'm so glad you decided to join us

I'll just list your plan as "eating sensibly" if that's alright. We have lots of WISHers who have had great success eating sensibly, I'll bet you have great success too.

Visit us often, okay?

Welcome to WISH, I am sure that you will find some wonderful tips on here. I love the encouragment, inspiration and support on this board and I know I couldn't do it alone.

Your plan seems to be one that you feel you can stick with and that is the important thing. This is a complete lifestyle change, not just another diet.

I look forward to getting to know you.
