Help me stay motivated

Hi! My name is Mary. I'm a 38 YO grandmother of a 4 month old granddaughter and mother of 19, 18, and 11 YO kids. I joined this site because I want to lose weight...a lot of weight! I currently weigh 275lbs and it's embarrassing. I have fibromyalgia and other health conditions that make it so hard for me to lose. I have to be cautious about not over exerting myself but I have begun walking-although not very far and for only about 10-15 minutes per day.

I would like to befriend others who may be having some of the same struggles as I am or anyone who is willing to help me to stay motivated. I would gladly help you to stay on track and help you any way that I can. I look forward to losing weight and gaining new friends!
