Hi! I just started on Monday. I saw a picture of myself from the back and profile that really opened my eyes. I NEED to lose 15 pounds or more soon! When I hit that goal I'll do more. I've been trying for a while now but didn't have a tool like this to use. I think it'll help tremendously.

My father has had two bypass surgeries by the age of 63 because of massive heart disease. It's been eye opening to me because of the hidden issues. I feel fine so didn't think there was a problem. My cholesterol is horrible and I'm heading the same direction as he went if I don't change the way I eat and my sedentary life. I'm looking forward to the support I see here.

Have a great day everyone!
