Hi there everyone. My name is Toni. I am a 35 yr old wife and mother of 3 amazing kids. A friend told me about this site and I LOVE what I have seen so far! I am so inspired by all of you. I love the support system that I see on here. I have been overweight my enitire adult life..and I havent been under 200 lbs since highschool. I am so ready to begin my journey...but I have no one to support me. My kids are in school all day and my husband works ALOT. I work from home...so I really should have no excuses. I have hit bottom and now I need help to get out. I am a type 1 diabetic and I have an insulin pump. What I really need is to know that I am not alone...and that there are others out there just like me...struggling. Please Help...

    You are not alone, Toni. In the 3 weeks I have been serious about this, I have gained a lot of inspiration and knowledge by reading the forums. I am in awe by what people have done and know I too will be a success story.

    Just think, all the changes you are going to make will help your kids and your husband become healthier too.

    Good luck and keep logging.
