So I've been around the site for about a month now and haven't been posting much or making friends. I love reading the forum for all your tips and recipes. The support also seems amazing!
I've been the "fat kid" just about my entire life and I'm ready to take control of it! My mom had gastric bypass surgery about 9yrs ago and doing something that drastic just doesn't seem like something I wanna do, even though she hasn't regretted it one day! I have a very accepting husband who would love me through any size, but I feel he deserves a hot wife! I also have 2 wonderful kids who deserve an active mother, and an alive and healthy one!

    I have found the more friends you have the better your support system! I LOVE that your have an excellent support system at home!!! (too often I hear of people complaining about the lack of support at home).

    Wish you well on your journey!

    You can add me as a friend, as well!!! (I have more than 100 pounds to lose and just started this little journey!)

    Hi - I'm new as well. Really just started today. It's time. Please feel free to make me your friend. I'm taking this 1 day at a time. Not very used to tooling around on a computer so if I somehow mess up, i'm still in the learning process.

    jam3114: Am I assuming right that you meant that you sent me a friend request? If so, I'm apparently completely lost at finding out how to accept it haha
