I'm gonna lose this weight!

I'm 38 years old. I'm 5'7" and 239. I've been struggling with my weight since I was a teenager. I started gaining when I was 16, after my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. Not long after she was in remission, my dad was diagnosed with bone cancer. He lost the battle 14 months later. During that time and after it was over, I turned to food for comfort.

That was nearly 20 years ago and I'm ready to feel good again. I've been on here for 4 days and I love it.

I need all the help I can get!
