I saw the Newbie Starting Tomorrow topic and it caught my attention. I've been reading these forums for a while and everyone is so motivating! I am starting ss tomorrow. First time on cd and a bit nervous as I am not sure I can stick it out! I have steadily put on an extra 20lbs over the past two years after going through a terribly painful divorce. I am quite ready to be able to once again wear my clothes and not feel so matronly. So glad I found this forum and all of your encouragement!
