in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone. My name is Paula. I'm 309 lbs. I must say this is the biggest I have ever been. Before I get to ahead of myself let me tell you a little about my past. In 1999 I married my best friend. Life was perfect. I was a healthy 145 lbs on my 5'7" frame. On August 19th 2001 me world crashed in on me. My mother passed away suddenly in her sleep. I was 26 years old. I have been battling depression since then. I was divorced in 2006. I'm tired of feeling and looking like this. My first grand daughter is due sometime this week. I want to be able to play with her. I want to be able to run and chase butterflies with her. I'm hoping this is a good place to start. Thank you for listing.

    Hi Paula, I'm just back on MFP and starting again. If you want you can friend me. We got about the same amount to lose, maybe we can encourage each other.
