Hi all!
I'm so excited about this, actually, and I didn't even know this site existed till my brother told me. I've always been overweight, practically my whole life, except for the transition I made from moving from Canada to here, I don't know how I managed that.
But anyway, I am getting a couple friends on this as well and I be-friended my brother on the site so we can help each other stay motivated. Every year I realize I keep gaining weight and I always think it will stop, and so now I'm definitely doing something about it! I love to hike and what not and I think I am more active than other people my weight... it just never seems to pay off !
I'm in Southern California and I really need to start lookin good for the summer!
Thanks all,
Sandra Dee
