Hey folks! I'm glad I found this tool to help with my fitness and weight loss goals. I just started 2 weeks ago with a personal trainer. I'm hoping that this will be a life-changing experience. I was pretty close to considering bariatric surgery last year before deciding that just isn't the path for me. I've had a lot of life changes and realizations, so I decided to jump into the commitment and work on getting my life into balance.

I created a blog to chart my progress. Feel free to check it out =)

    Welcome :-) I started on here in April and I love it, so I know you will. I was on the same road heading towards getting surgery but I realized I just really didn't need to rely on that. I knew I could do it myself if I just stuck with it, and so far I'm doing great.

    Always glad to see new people join, and I'm always happy to talk and maybe help if I can. Hope you enjoy everything on this site, and I really hope it helps you reach your goal. :happy:
