Welcome to the group!

I hear your pains about finding motivation - I experience it everyday. And though I definitly agree with Shawna about having to find the motivation within yourself first there are times that I find inspiration here.

There are so many strong women on this board who are in various stages of weight loss and we all face the same struggles and I find it helpful knowing I'm not alone in this battle. We all slip up and we all shine and most everyone here will help you shine even when you slip up - if that makes any sense.

Congratulations on making that tough decision to change your life. Anytime you need a word of support or just want to rant, we're here!

Cheers

Lisa

Lemme check my phone book and see if that store is a Lane Bryant or a Fashion Bug -- that might explain it.

Yeah, I do feel good that I usually choose the healthier foods to eat, but at the same time, I am irked that there are not more choices for someone who is on a limited budget like me.
