Good Afternoon,

I was actually referred to this place by my doctor. At 27, I'm obese and need some serious help. I currently weigh 308lbs and I am aiming to lose 108lbs. I've had weight issues all my life, and I just look forward to meeting some people on here to help support and push me to succeed.

Thanks all,

JC

    Welcome! I just started this program a couple of weeks ago and so far I love it! I keep finding things that make me like it even more! My husband and I are working on this together, his starting goal is to lose 50 lbs, my goal is to lose 10 lbs. No matter what your goal is, this is a great place to start and keeping track of your calories in huge in weight loss.

    Good luck on your journey and stay positive....remember to be patient.
