Hi everybody! My name is Joe and I am 32. I am a disabled veteran and had back surgery last year fusing 2 vertebrae and losing 1/2 of another. It has been very difficult since surgery and I have been inactive for quite a while. I am slowly introducing short walks into my daily routine but need help staying on track and eating the right foods. I have about 115 pounds I need to lose. Thanks for reading my introduction!

    Thank you for the encouraging words. It's really tough to put down the sodas and junk foods but i did really well today with only a few wrong foods and drinks so hopefully I can do better tomorrow!

    Welcome. Take one day at a time and make small changes. Over time they all add up.
