Hey Ladies, Im new to this site and the group. Im currently at my heaviest weight of 255 lbs. I have done the fad diets and extreme workouts and they worked and but I never stuck with it and gained all the weight back and then some. Im not use to being this big, you see I was a model some years ago. The weight gain started in my mid 20's right before I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. I was always sick and bearly had the energy to work let alone exercise. Over the past 10 years I have gained 100 pounds. During that time I was also married and divorced. I have recovered from having the brain tumor removed and my short and sweet marriage and now Im ready to get my body back. I met with a nutritionist a couple of weeks ago and was put on a 1500 calorie diet. Im doing good with my eating and Im exercising 15 minutes a day, Im starting slow. However, I need all the support I can get to ensure the weight stays off this time.
