Thread: A welcome to all our new members in 2012!

As 2012 approaches, is now the time to think about the new you?

We all want to do something about our weight and the beginning of a year is a good time to start.

Please start a new thread and tell us a little about yourself. Also if you have any questions either about the site or a diet we will try to answer them.

Also suggest you start a diary thread in the section of your diet so others can support you as we all need lots of support and encouragement.

Good luck.

Please read this as it may help you

Hi, new member today, loving the site, getting great encouragement stumling around the forums but finding it tricky to get a grasp of the layout Any helpful hints ?

Hello, new member, just joined today. I'm challenging myself to lose 6 stone this year. Stumbled across this form and it looks like a really great idea! I need all the motivation I can get.

Am away for a weekend in Paris on Friday, but plan to ease myself into my diet this week, then going to try Exante on 9th Jan when I get back. Wish me luck!! And good luck to all those looking to make a change in 2012

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year

Good to have you all with us and I do hope you will make yourself at home and if you need any help please ask

Hi, I am Vicky. I joined minimins yesterday as I have had enough of the overeating and being unable to walk up a couple of flights of stairs without needing an oxygen tank!! I have set myself a goal of losing at least 2 dress sizes by July 12 as we are going to visit family then and I haven't seen them in 8 years. I think they would get an unpleasant shock if they could see me just now! So determination is the name of the game - I will reach my goal!!

Looking forward to chatting with you all

Hi Im new to here but this site has been recommended by 2 of my friends I am going to start SW soon but wanted to get used to the site here first, get some ideas etc. I would like to loose 6 stone, im really hoping the willpower stays with me!!
