Hi everyone one my name is Pam and I'm 42 yrs old and its TIME I get HEALTHY! I've always been a bit over weight my whole life so this has been a life long fight. I want to be around for a long time so I need to get healthy- not just loose weight. Change in eating habits, actually have an exercise routine, and make better choices in my life. I want to do this for myself and my kids.

    Welcome! I sent you a friend request. One tip I would say, is to keep your diary public. It helps me stay healthy because I know other people can see what I am eating. They even see when I am cheating on my "diet". Good luck on your quest to live a healthy lifestyle. You will love it here. People are very encouraging and nice. They personally give me motivation when I need it, and in return I do the same for them.
