I've been trying really hard to lose weight since the beginning of the year -- mostly because of a wedding I was in where I knew there would be LOTS of pictures.<BR/><BR/>It wasn't easy or fun, but I did manage to lose most of the weight I wanted to (3.6 pounds left!). If you're looking for a good (free) support, I'd completely recommend SparkPeople. Lots of support, lots of suggestions, lots of knowledge and advice, but still enough for you to choose how involved you want to be.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07803503583347758969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7494202605629550918.post-31841144898310570622008-06-25T00:04:00.000-04:002008-06-25T00:04:00.000-04:00Oh nooooo!
