Hi everyone! I am Belinda and am excited that one of my great friends pointed me in the direction of this website. I am 27 and have a vascular tumor in my right calf. I am a PE teacher and have always been in good shape. However, in the last few months I have packed on over 25 pounds due to meds and limitied exercise. I am also newly engaged!! I joined this site to add some motivation and hopefully group support in trying to drop some weight and get my skinny on for my wedding dress. I am also worried about my health with gaining weight so fast.

Welcome!

It looks like you're new here. Sign in or register to get started.
