Another Newbie!

[Julie]

Hi!
You seem like a nice group, I'd love to join in.
After trying to drop some weight and repeatedly failing, I dusted off my old
Weigh****chers book two weeks ago and am truly amazed at how well this way
of eating works! Since September 18th I've lost 6 pounds (even with a
couple of wine and dine blow-outs!) and feel so much better. It seems so
easy to put on weight in the mid-forties and much harder to remove it, but
this weight loss is very encouraging.
Bye for now.
Julie

Welcome to the group, Julie. I'm sure you'll like it here.

Hi and welcome Julie. Here's our welcome newbies e-mail... I'm glad to see
you here! Good luck!

Welcome to this great newsgroup where you'll receive lots of support,
advice, and encouragement. Once a week on Sundays, I post a list of links
that newcomers to asdww might find useful. You may want to look for that
later in the week, or do a backwards search for last Sunday's post.

In the meantime, here's our FAQ:

Disclaimer: As an unmoderated Usenet newsgroup, asdww is unusual in that
most of the people who participate are respectful, considerate folks who
freely share their experience with and knowledge of WW, weight loss, and
maintenance. Yet occasionally, spammers, trolls, and flamers show up to post
advertising, false information, insults, and the like. Nearly all of the
time, people like this are just trying to yank someone's chain. Most of the
regulars on this newsgroup offer their experience as a suggestion to try if
you're stuck, but are quick to advise that each person has to find what
works for him/herself. If someone posts something that doesn't sound right
to you, ask the newsgroup, ask your WW leader, or ask your health
professional.

Much success on your weight loss journey! WW works!
