Hi everyone :)

[NoellBlue1]

Hi everyone!  My name is Noell, I'm 33 years old, I'm married to my wonderful husband of 11 years (with no kids yet), I'm new to FTS, and I hope to shed 115 pounds within 2.5 years, and be a size 10, as well as improve my fitness level.   I'm really excited to be here, and I'm very positive about reaching my goals in the near future.  I love music and visual arts...I do oil pastels as a hobby, and I'm taking violin lessons.  I also enjoy reading and nice walks.  I've struggled with my personal weight issues ever since I was 21, each year after year, I got bigger...so here I am today, looking for a fresh start and a new lease on life.  I aim to make new friends here, I need all of the help I can get to stay on task with the fat loss and so on.  I'm not a person of many words, (I don't know what to say or write half of the time), but this is me in a nutshell.

Hi, NoellBlue1!

I welcomed you to our FTS family in another post.
But I will say that you will find all the encouragement and support you need to succeed right here.

The one thing that is required from you is a solid 100% commitment to getting healthier with FTS.
If you provide that, we will fill in the rest.

That doesn't mean you may never slip.
But if you do, we'll be right here to help you get back on and stay on track.
That's just how a good family operates!
