Can't wait to start my new lifestyle
« on: December 29, 2013, 11:07:42 PM »
Hello everyone my name is Alicia and I am new to FTS. I am waiting for my book to arrive and could not be more excited  ;D after reading all these success stories. I have known for quiet some time now that I am overweight but just have not cared to really push myself to fix it. I have finally had enough as I have hit my all time heaviest of 195 lbs at only 5' 2" (including being 9 months pregnant  :o) I need to do this first of all for myself but also for my 2 beautiful girls.

Welcome to the FTS family, Alicia!!! :) :) :) :) :) :)

Sometimes when we "push" ourselves, we become weary.
So please join our conversations often.
You will find strength and knowledge that would not find otherwise.

Your FTS family here at this forum are here to help you reach your goal, and beyond!
So again, welcome! :) :) :)

Tony
What you do today is what matters!

Welcome Alicia - best bit of advice - clear out all the stuff you shouldn't be having.  If that is a bit difficult due to family life, clear a space and put all the stuff that is fts friendly in it and only use the things there (you won't be tempted if you don't have to rummage through 'unfriendly' foods).  And post often, we are here to help.
