I've been on here a while and have lost 52 pounds. I have about 40 more to go, ultimately. I'd love to have as many friends as possible with either a large amount of weight to lose OR with a significant amount already gone. I'd like to see how people are doing this and also how those of you who have already lost the weight are keeping it off. My diary is open to friends. I love looking at the diaries of others as well. It always helps to get new ideas and see what people are eating.

A little more information about me: I have lost the 52 pounds since July, when I found out I have Type 2 diabetes. I am very focused on being as healthy and as active as possible. I am the only parent my four-year old son has so I want to be around for him as long as possible! I'm a mom, a daughter, a sister, a friend, and a teacher. I'm also a woman of God, most importantly!

Please add me if you'd like to motivate and be motivated!

    Thanks OC, my A1C was 5.5 at my October check. I can't wait for the one in a couple weeks! It's so nice to look forward to going to the dr. for a change!
