A family member suggested I join,

I have a weight loss goal but more importantly I have a life goal.
I want to enjoy an active life again.
I once had such a life, I wasn't tired all the time, I craved and ate healthy foods.My body didn't hurt and physical activity was easy.
A motorcycle accident and then a bad marriage developed into a bout of depression that got the better of me; weight gain, inactivity, more weight gain and finally a divorce.

Some years later................................ Happy to say the feelings of depression no longer loom heavy over my head, and I have been in a healthy long-term relationship with a wonderful man who does not trigger those feelings of sadness due to my physical appearance and condition.
I am loved and accepted by him exactly as I am.

I want to enjoy a long healthy life with him.
Loosing weight and regaining a healthy active life will help me accomplish that.

Thanks for listing.
