Hi Everyone

DawnMarie · 04-03-2006, 05:04 AM

Just registered a couple days ago and missed this thread so thought I'd say hello

I have been using BB.com and found out about this site from FitNFirm - she has been busy sending new folks this way!

The site looks great so far! I look forward to meeting some new folks as well as seeing others from BB.

I am about 1.5 yrs into my journey to lose weight and transform my body, with 115 lbs down and counting!

I hope to gain knowledge and motivation from the experiences of everyone here...and of course, have fun too!!

Hey DawnMarie great having you join us here at IM! It takes a bit to get used to the slower pace after being at crazy BB.com but you really get to know people better here and it's like one big family. Sounds like you've had a pretty amazing transformation already! Have any before and current pics to share? I'm sure with that kind of success you have lot's of great tips you can share with others who are just starting their own journey. Anyway welcome! :bier:

DawnMarie · 04-03-2006, 08:13 PM

Thanks everyone for such a warm welcome!

I am in the process of gathering up some before and after pics to post in my log that is almost over on BB and likely also in my IMPC thread after I post my entry pics so they can be in context to where I have come from. I have come a long way but I have a way yet to go to reach my goal and I think doing the Most Improved category will make me challenge myself to stay on track and make that final picture really show a difference! I am very excited about it and am looking forward to seeing everyone's transformation!!
