Welcome!
So nice to have you here! You are smart to make managable goals. Each ten pound increment will soon add up to the total goal!
Hope you enjoy the ExtraPounds family. There are so many wonderful people here. Spend some time reading blogs and leaving comments. You will soon make some very good friends!

Welcome to EP!
Hi there! Glad to have you on board the weight loss train!! I was in your same shoes early this year. I weighed in at 308 and want to lose to 165. Same as you woke up one morning and wondered what I had done to myself. I decided to change, and today I am at 215. I still have about 50 pounds left, and it has been a struggle. However you will become friends with some of the best people you will probably NEVER actually meet in person! I swear, without these people and EP, I don't think I would have done as well as I have so far!
Good luck in reaching your goal!

Welcome
Just wanted to welcome you to EP and to the 100 lbs group!! 10 lbs at a time is a great way to take things. Start slowly with your exercise and then build from there.

Thanks!
well, i figure small amounts might actually make it a managable goal and maybe i'll even succeed this time.
Thank you both for the support :)

Welcome to EP
This is a great place to start your journey. Ten pounds by the end of January is a great goal - very achievable. Besides, you have to start somewhere, right?
Best regards!
