in Introduce Yourself
I have been on and off of this site for some time but this time i have decided that it is time to really get to work and lose some weight. last month i had a small bday for my hubby and in one of the picture that was taken i looked like i was 8 months pregnant (not that it's a bad thing if you are pregnant) but am not, we are trying to conceive at the moment but i have a lot of health issues so getting healhty is a must for me.

i have always been over weight even when i was diagnosed with high blood pressure and then diabetes did i listen i kept eating and although i did try to diet it was not working but now i have a new approach i have changed my whole life style i exercise and am eating healthier, i am trying a new program to help with the weight loss and it seems to be working am also off my diabetic meds because i no longer need them so that is a great achievement but there is more work to do so if any one want to be my buddy let me know :)

    Hi, my name is Kimberlee, 49. I am a diabetic that got taken off my insulin and some of my oral diabetes meds since losing my wt. I was unable to have children due to being overweight and unhealthy and it is too late for me. I am glad that you are taking control and I hope that you are able to have the children that you want. I have lost most of my wt. through diet due to being physically disabled. I do try to get in some kind of exercise everyday, but sometimes that is difficult. I know that you can do this and having a group of supportive friends can really help. Please feel free to add me for encouragement and motivation.
