Hey everyone, I am new to this site. I have seen several friends on Facebook post about this site and seen their progression, so I decided to join myself=)
I have been through a lot the past few years and became self destructive, but after I got over the loss of my loved one along came the pounds, I am ready to shed the pounds and beyond ready for a new me!
At 26yrs old, 5'2.. I am almost 200lbs, its time for a change and I hope this is going to be a good way for me to start my new begining...

    Welcome to the site. There are tons of people here to motivate and encourage you. Take it one small goal at a time and don't let little pitfalls discourage you. I'm here for support.

    Welcome!

    You picked a great time of year to start! BEFORE the holidays.

    My advice? Make it a point to log your food and exercise every day and I think it's pretty safe to say you'll be seeing some good changes soon!
