Hey there Miz Muse!

Glad to see you over here at the TDC!! First thing you might want to do is start your own journal, so that you can write all your thoughts/rants/reflections in one place, and people can come and visit you there

Your intro. was great reading! Since we're both around the same place right now, it's nice to meet someone who's in the same <chunky dunkin> boat as me

Hope to talk to you a lot more!!

Hugs,
Karen

Like you, I'm looking to lose over 100lbs as well. I'm off to a pretty good start too as you can see by my stats.

Already, my knees and feet are thanking me.

Thanks, all of you, for such the warm welcome.

I think I was right -- I wouldn't find this kind of support from weight watchers or anywhere else local to me. It's not common you find a group full of people just like you who want the same thing as you.

It's nice that one can be honest and not be scorned for saying "hey, guess what? I'm almost 330lbs!"

Gonna go mess with that journal and post some before pics -cringe-

I saw how much you've lost, and went and looked at your photos and I was very impressed.

It's great how many people focus on their successes and not their failures

Thank you. With nearly 200lbs I want to drop, I'm sure I'll need it. Well done on your 10lbs!

Good luck to you, too. As I've said probably a dozen times now, it definately is nice to know you're not alone, even if people are across the country from you.

Hey .muse.

Your off to a great start, wtg. What caught my eye was, giggity giggity. Just wandering what that means. When I was little my mom used to say a poem called The giggity gee, In Pa. Ducth, brings back good memories.
