Hi everyone! I'm 42 yrs old. I am a very positive person who is asking for the push I need to lose the weight I need to lose. A little about myself. I am a breast cancer survivor! Yes I am blessed to be able to say that but it has been a rough road. I have completed chemo, radiation, bilateral mastectomy and 7 other surgeries all related to the same in the last 20 months. My 8th surgery was last week. I'll be darned that is the last one ( ooh God I hope so) anyways with that said I have done a whole bunch of sitting. I've gained this weight that it's not good for me. I'm very limited on exercise so this is going to be very trying for me. I always was a type A person who never stopped going ha kinda like the energizer bunny.
So far I have dug real deep to fight the fight off my life but this is going to be another fight I need to conquer. I will welcome all the friends I can get to help. Oh yea I'm a pretty darn good motivator too :-)
Thanks in advance!!!
