Re: Welcome to Fight the Jiggle
Hello.  My name is Cassie and I am 23 years old (soon to be 24) I was just looking through the runboard directory, and saw this and thought it looked good. I know that a good support group helps when one is losing weight. I have not managed to lose much-once about 40 pounds, but it came right back because I stopped exercising and fell into depression, which always brings my weight up.
Perhaps this support group can help me feel better about myself so I can hold onto a plan rather than telling myself it isn't any use because the weight will just come back.
Because of my anxiety, exercise outside doesn't reduce stress, it increases my depression. I would exercise inside on the treadmill, but I'm afraid of it.
I would like to get a machine that I'm not afraid to use.
I have a very hard time with nutrition. I don't have any money, and my family doesn't buy many fruits and vegetables, so I really don't know how to get those into my diet without a lot of hassle. Cause, it seems a lot of the time I manage to get fruits and vegetables, most of the spoil before I get to them. That makes me feel bad, but I don't know how to stick to eating healthy.
I'd rather have a snack of cheese doodles then a few carrots.

Re: Welcome to Fight the Jiggle
Hey Cassie.
I just wanted to thank you for joining my boards. I think it's great you want to get yourself on track with a healthy lifestyle. I am currently in the process of getting my weight under control and changing my life around. It's definately not an easy task, but it is do-able!

Re: Welcome to Fight the Jiggle
Hello!
I saw your board advertised in the Runboard Directory and thought I'd check you out.
I've had a weight problem for a long time now and I'm always trying to lose. I fall into a bad pattern of eating too much junk food! I can understand the cheese doodles vs carrot sticks remark! Only my biggest problem is eating out vs cooking at home! I need to stay home more often!
I'm looking forward to making some new friends here. There aren't many weightloss forums around and this one looks like it will be a good one! Let's help each other!

Re: Welcome to Fight the Jiggle
Hi there,
I am 50yr old who has battled fat all my life - and recently joined Weight Watchers, even though I had a bad opinion of them (left over from an experience at age 12 -- ancient history!  ).
Since November I have lost over 51 pounds, and I am really amazed and delighted that this is working for me. it has meant some behavior changes that daunting at first, but have become easier over time.
I am glad to see help and support for the journey on RUNBOARD... I am a mod over at Ladies of the Shadow Gallery , a "V for Vendetta" fan site.
keep up the good work!

Re: Welcome to Fight the Jiggle
I'd just like to say welcome to both VenusInBlueJeans and Venturous. I'm glad more people are finding my community. For awhile, I didn't think it was going to go anywhere, but it's good to see some people taking an interest.
Venturous...I also wanted to say congratulations on losing your 50 pounds. It's definately not easy and you should be very proud of yourself for accomplishing that.
VenusInBlueJeans....I will help you the best I can to achieve all your goals. I still have about 80 pounds or so to lose before I get around my goal, so we can work at this together.
Again, thanks for joining. I look forward to reading more of your posts.

Re: Welcome to Fight the Jiggle
Hey all.
I thought I'd join, mainly to help other people if I can.
Over the last two years, I've gone from 230+ pounds to 169 through nothing more than proper healthy diet and exercise, and thought I could possibly help some of the other people who may be struggling with their nutrition or whatever.
I'm not here to sell stuff, or anything like that, but I am 100% honest, if a little blunt at times. 
Hope to get to know some of you peeps around.
