in Introduce Yourself
Hi, my name is Amanda, I'm 38 and I have 100lbs to lose (I'm 5'5 and weigh 240lbs). I have several health issues and have put myself last for years. My 9yr daughter passed away little over a year ago and I've decided that I have to live for her so that I can make the world what she would have if she had been given the chance to. I hope that I will meet some of the wonderful people on this site and that we will be able to support one another though this wonderful uphill battle. All the best!
