I am new to this site and I am so excited!!! I recently learned from my Dr. that I need to lose around 40 pounds to be considered "healthy" and I am ready for this journey.

Wow! Welcome aboard the journey of a lifetime!!! This site helped me lose 40 (when I thought I couldn't lose 10), so I KNOW you can do it!!! Find ways to make it fun... I don't believe in the "long face" dieting/exercise... That's just not me! :laugh:
You know you the best! Set yourself up for "Success". Lots of great people on here to encourage you along the way. Remember to use the daily diary - and create a ticker to motivate you along the way... Good luck!0
