My name is Haley, I grew up in a small town in Ohio. I have been struggling with my weight all my life and in 2012 I was diginosed with type 1 diabetes. I have been dealing with type one since then and it hasn't been an easy battle. I finally broke through and got my A1C down from a 13 to a 9. That is a huge thing for me so I told myself one thing at a time, now is the time to start my journey to losing these unwanted and shameful 132 pounds. Weight that I have been so ashamed about for far to long. I have a great group of friends and family that are a huge support but, I would like to Spred this as far as I can so I can't stop or let down those people. Please if you would comment share whatever you would like to support me on this journey and I will do my part to make sure I post everyday :) today is a new day and a great day to start a new life:) And please no negative comment :) good vibes only!
Thank you!

    Welcome feel free to add me as a friend. I have about 120 to lose and I can't give up this time . You will do great. One thing I learned is on a newer phone you can scan the bar code of any food and it puts everything in for you. Perfect!

    A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Your journey began with that single step of deciding on your goal. Now there is nothing on this Earth that can stop you.

    "I have brought myself, by long meditation, to the conviction that a human being with a settled purpose must accomplish it, and that nothing can resist a will which will stake even existence upon its fulfillment." - Benjamin Disraeli

    It's not so much weight to lose, but habits to gain and gradually refine. You can do it!
