Hi! I'm Missy :) I am 44 years old, mother of two, wife of one ;) I've been a member of MFP since 2013. January 2016 I got really sick. When I weighed after getting out of the hospital, I was over 420 pounds (my scale only went that high so I really don't know how much I weighed). I got down to 352 in March but currently I am at 370 pounds. I live a low-carb lifestyle. Due to many health issues, I am not able to do much exercise - like walking or standing. Swimming is my go to activity. Hope to find members who want to support one another. :)

    Im also low carb. Glad to meet you.
    Im 53 Mum of 2 beautiful adults & madly in love with my Man of 30 years. Been obese since I was 10. Tried every diet known to man but always failed. Gave up 2 years ago & thought it was my lot in life.
    I put on 40lbs in 6 months as I just didnt monitor anything but it scared the life out of me. I then found out about quitting sugar & later stepped it up to low carb. I havnt looked back.
    SW = 378
    CW = 288
    I cannot believe this is my results.
    Glad you are also doing this. You can do it.
