hello everyone! I'm a 26 year old from California who's looking to make a major change in my lifestyle. Needing to lose 100 lbs ... I was diagnosed with diabetes (can't believe I let myself get to this point) and I need to change for my future! Looking for friends along this journey! =)

    You can do it! It's one day, one meal, one workout at a time. I have been working since Oct 29th 2014. I joined MyFitnessPal in January. I began my Journey at 400 lbs. I am currently 286 lbs. I have lost 114 lbs so far. Make small changes you can commit to at first. It MUST BE A LIFESTYLE CHANGE AND NOT A DIET!!!! DIET's do not work! Work on cutting out processed food. Eat clean... (lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, vegetables and track everything you do. Good luck!
