Hello everyone, I am new to this site, but think I really like it. I am currently at 255 and about 5'10. I have began playing singles tennis every other day for 1 hour a day. My overall goal is to be at 190. Thats what i was in high school and i was a very fit athlete...believe it or not! I got sick and they put me on steroids when i was a senior and i balloned from 190 to 235 in 6 months!!! I have been struggling to shed the pounds since then and I've only been finding some more. I have been at 255 for about a year. I just got the job of my dreams that allows me to exercise while I'm at work and best of all my sisters my partner and battling her weight as well so we have inspiration in each other. I am hoping to lose the 10 pounds by May 4th! Wish me luck!
