Well first off Welcome !! Also CONGRATS to making this commitment! It's a huge step in the right direction I too have a lot to lose and you are more than welcome to add me. We have a long journey ahead of us, we'll have our ups and downs, but remember, it's ok to flub up every so often, tomorrow is a new day!0

Congratulations on your first step on your new journey! You are definitely on the right path. There's tons of support here along with helpful advice. Make sure you record all food and drink consumption as well as exercise. It helps to determine where improvement is needed.0

A friend request is coming your way!0 -
Hey congratulations on making this choice! I have been around 2 months now. I have been heavy, awwww, who am i kidding, I have been obese since I was about 14. I started having several health issues, including a hernia, last summer. Got that hernia fixed and dang it, I got another one this January. Doc said I need to loose at least 50lbs before I have this surgery, or it will just come back again. So in January I tried loosing weight on my own, (like I hadn't tried at least once a year before), at 255lbs. I got down to 247lbs. Then my neice told me about this place in March. I started here 3/18/10 at 247.6lbs. Now, 5/19/10, 2 months later, I am at 213.8lbs. This place is amazing! The support is awesome. Why did I wait until I was 43 to start trying to loose for real? I am feeling so much better. My feet no longer hurt as much when I walk, and my scale no longer squeeks when I step on it. LOL!! Because of the hernia, my only exercise allowed is walking at 2.0mph and bike riding. So I do both, not much else. I was so proud of my accomplishment at 20lbs off, I told my daughter my weight, before hand and then. At 30lbs off, I told my husband the same, how high I was, and what I was then. Nobody ever knew. Then I posted it on here. My ticker showed how much I wanted to loose, it now shows the actual pounds I weigh. I OWNED my number, finally. I could go on and on, but anyways, WTG for joining and please accept me as a friend. I have 63 lbs more I want to loose. Thanks0

First of all, good for you!! I think we are the same age, and I have a total of 60-65 pounds to lose. I know all too well the struggles and heartache that come with being too heavy. It took over my life. I have lost a total of 19lbs right now, and I will be happy to support you and hang in there with you. You're not alone!!! Take it one meal at a time, you can do this!!0
