Trying to get "me" back!

missigus

Hi, I just started a week ago here and thought it might be fun to make some buddies. (If I can figure out how to friend/add people LOL). Any way, I am 5'4 and need to lose about 35lbs. I am coming from a really active back ground. I used to run and work out 5x a week to maintain my weight. However, I had to quit because of some knee issues and gained a lot of weight as a result. I also have thyroid disease which has made weight loss kinda tricky too. But, I am getting it figured out, I will get "me" back! I am walking, and have lost 5 lbs my 1st week. I'm looking for other people that may have had similar experiences to bounce things off of. This site is a great tool for people like me that need to see things spelled out sometimes!
