Newbie here - but I must confess

Hi my name is Laura, I am a newbie of sorts. I was a member of this board a few years back but when they change the format of the messaging I left. I still have a hard time following it. The Outline button really doesn't help me much but I'm trying. I have been following my food plan for the most part these past years and I have been able to lose and keep off 24lbs. A couple of weeks ago I caught a glimpse of myself in a mirror (full-length) while having "relations" with my DH. Talk about an eye opener. WOW. LOL. Anyway to make a long story short I have found my missing motivation, to say the least, for exercise. I have been working really hard these past couple of weeks. And although I have some journal buddies, they have not been very encouraging or supportive. I would say out of the 19 buddies I send a journal to, I would say I hear from about 4 of them. But so far only about 3 of those send journals back so it makes it difficult to support them too.

What I would really like is to find some serious journal buddies to email with. If any of you would like to be a journal buddy email me at 505lkn@sympatic.ca. I will check in with the board a couple of times a week but I still find this format confusing. I guess you just can't teach an old dog new tricks, especially when they are set in their ways.

Hi Laura, welcome back! I hope that you get used to the new format and can join us more often. I really think that coming to these boards has helped me a lot. I never saw the old format, so I don't know how different it is. Anyways, welcome aboard.
