Hi from Oklahoma!

Hi,
My name is Cindy and I am tired of being overweight. I am 270 and now I have high blood pressure. It was just discovered a few months ago. I really need to get healthy for my family and myself.

    Welcome Cindy!

    I too was discovered to have high blood pressure. I started a bit heavier than you: 296.5.

    Happy to say that by following MFP and religiously logging my calories for 145 days, I've lost 40 pounds.

    Good luck on your journey. :)
