Hello everyone!
I moved from Dallas Texas to Albuquerque New Mexico about 13 years ago. I wore a 29 waist jeans (glad I took pictures). Before the end of my marriage, I saw a video of me teaching my oldest son how to ride a bike. I looked at myself and thought “Did I gain that much weight?”. I went from the 130s to 194 in 13 years (at height 5’11). I joined weight watchers and got back down to 165. I have relocated back to Texas (maybe to stay) and I am now back at 194 but this time with high blood pressure. I am making some major life style changes and I am determined to get my weight back down and be healthy and medication free (not on any meds yet). I saw several posts that I wanted to respond to but didn’t due to time constraints. Hope to chat with some of you on this site.

I work in North Dallas, at coit and LBJ. I am staying near Hillsboro, south of Dallas between Dallas and Waco, out in the country. I have my boys in a small town school, which I prefer over Dallas schools.
Wow, you did well ! From 230 to 160! Did you use this website from 230 to 160?0
