Hi everyone. I just started today. I am not concerned so much with how much weight I loose. I am trying to make sure I do not get diabetes. I want to hopefully get rid of the high blood pressure meds I am on. I just want to gett healthy so I can see my kids grow up and get married. I am kinda hoping to drop 4 dress sizes. I want to do it the right way so I do not put it all back on.

    Welcome! I just joined about a week ago. My mother is also on here and is on high blood pressure meds. That is a scary thing to deal with. I would love to be able to help you (if you are addicted to all the wrong foods you know what I mean). Good luck!
