Hello all, I am new to this as an active member. I have finally decided to get serious about weight loss after seeing my doctor and being put on medication for pre diabetes and high cholesterol. My current weight is 406 and my goal (very far down the road) is 175. I am 5'9 and have a large build to start with so I think 175 is the safest for me. Not sure what else to say, except I am going to need encouragement. I have never been vocal about my weight cause it scares me to death. Have a good day.
