HI R Sikes!  Yes, we have had members on this site who have lost over 100 pounds.  You can look at the B&A’s on this site and see some of them.  You will also find their stories in some of the earlier chats.  But YOU will be the next one, right?  It starts today, and hopefully it ends in just a few months.  Are you up for it?  Also, be sure you ta…[Read more]

Every Monday, 6:00 PM PST.  You will need to set up a [free] Zoom account at Zoom.us.

Hi Rebekah!  Yay!  We are going to have so much fun!  

Yeah!  Good job!
