    Welcome Charles...lots of support here. One day at a time...oh yeah, not an AA meeting. It's still the best way to accomplish any goal that must be taken in small steps. Best of Luck!!!

    Ha! Funny post. Welcome. I'm new too (six day so far), so I'm sending a friend request. Keeping each other on track will be our success I think. :smile:

    Morbidly obese....ugh!!! I despise that term. That is why I am here to get out of that "catagory"! Welcome to MFP!! I too am here for a LONG journey looking for fun, friendly people to help pass the time whether it be the motivation, the kind words that shun off the negative thoughts, a laugh, a good recipe, whatever!!! If you would like feel free to add me.
