Today was an eye openning experience. I went to the dr for a presurgery clearance and found out my weight had skyrocketted to 288 pounds. Ridiculous and depressing. I'm getting ready for my 3rd foot surgery in 2 years due to a stingray that impaled it's barb into my foot and I want to take back control of my life. I enjoyed working out before the accident and want to feel that way again. I haven't been able to do cardio since the incident in 2008 and hopefully by the beginning of the year, I'll be able. I want to be successful for me and because I want a long life with my husband and two beautiful little boys.

Hi there, and welcome to the site!!
Wow, I'm sorry to hear about your stingray accident, but good for you for not giving up on yourself!! I hope this site helps you reach your goals. The food tracker will help you stay on track with your diet, and if you have any diet/eating/food questions, definitely search the forums on here... there is a LOT of information. And if you don't find what you are looking for, feel free to post a question on here. I've only posted a small handful, but people were VERY responsive and helpful.
I hope your surgery goes well, and that you're able to get back into working out soon.
Best of luck!!0
