Hi looking for some support buddies

Hi everyone my name is Tameika I'm 42yrs young been married 25 yrs 3 kids 23,20,14. It's so hard for me to loose weight between having 2 open heart surgeries, fybromyalgia, and other stuff with all my meds the weight won't come off. I even had gastric sleeve done lost 70lbs but regained it. Looking to loose 115lbs anybody else out there with my struggles I would love to give and get some support/advice

    Hey Tameika, I'm Kaitlin! 27 years old, have had arthritis that sits on my sciatic nerve ever since I turned 20. One wrong twist or bend and I'm done for! But I have over 100lbs to lose myself and it's not going anywhere unless I finally get up and move (carefully lol). I can't offer much on the advice front, but you do have my full support! Right now I'm doing babysteps (trying out yoga and walks after work) I say find something small to start off with and work your way up from there. :)
    Good luck!!
