I'm New & Have over 100 pounds to lose.

Hi there, I am new to this. My name is Laura and I have a lot of weight to lose. I am a diabetic. I am on Metformin 2x a day. I am looking for support and friends who are going through this weightloss journey too. I started eating healthier last Thursday, but just found out about this site today. I am 40 years old and married to a wonderful husband. Some times my husband just doesn't understand how hard it is to try and lose weight. He says things in the past like "Just this once won't hurt anything". Guess what that one time turns into my big downfall. So here I am starting all over again.

    I am also a newbie, just joined this afternoon. I also have 100+ lbs to lose and I am from MO. I too, take Metformin 2x daily though I am not diabetic. Please add me to your friend list and if I can figure out how, I will add you to mine. lol GL, we can do this. From what I have seen this afternoon, I think I am going to love this site. I also am a Weight Watcher member and attend meetings and use their boards, but have had so much trouble getting my blog to post there, it sent me on a search. Thank goodness I found this one.
