Hi Everyone,
My name is Christine and I am so happy to have found this board. I have been reading for the last couple of hours and am very impressed, moved and humored by all of you. The support is awesome.
I am on my second week of induction, my strips are purple, but no weight loss yet. After reading so many postings I'm not nearly as defeated feeling as I was. This is my second serious atempt at LCE. My first was with a friend 3/02 to 11/02, lost 50 lbs. I was so proud, though I had so much more to go. Then my oldest daughter had 3 serious sergeries in 8 months... unfortunately I hit my comfort foods and have gained back 30 of the 50, very depressing.... especially since I gave away most of my "big" clothes. never thought I'd allow myself to gain back that much.
So now after so many false starts I am really committed in my mind and heart to do this again. I thank my lucky stars that I have found such a wonderful board and hope I can give back as much as I recieve.
Hello again everyone, I'm looking forward to getting to know you.

Christine

Christine...first of all, welcome. Yes, you found a great bunch of people. I, too, have been off and on over the past few years and this time it is finally sticking. And, I give a lot of credit to the support I've received here at LCE.

Good luck, post your questions or problems, and let us help you!!

Welcome Christine!

You are so right about this board. It really is like an *online family* and I don't think I would have ever made it this far without it.
The best key to success is to keep reading and keep posting.
We're here to help so you don't have to do this alone.
I wish you the best,

Summer
