Hi. Today is the day I made a new start. I had an appointment at a weight management clinic today and will continue going until they no longer allow me to go. LOL I need to lose at least 100lbs. I am currently 279 but this is not the highest weight I've ever been. I've struggled with weight all my life. At 12 I was 200lbs, I'm 38 now and I need to get healthy for myself and my family. I'm hoping I can do this but I'm also looking for support.

    You can add me as well! I try to be a support for others, and could definitely use encouragement myself!

    I don't know you but you have my support. I was on Weight Watchers and had success with it. Then my financial situation changed and I could no longer continue with it. Then my stress and anxiety levels changed and I gained all the weight that I had lost back. So I became very depressed.
    But I'm happy to have started on myfitnesspal and to meet people like you. I will cheer you on and be very honest with you. So add me and together we can lose the pounds together.
