All my life I have been over weight and no one knew why until I went to a doctor who figured out I had insulin resistance. He said I was pushing out 300 times the amount of insulin then average and that's why I was over weight. When I was 12 I weighed over 240 lbs. And I have never had the will to change my life and get it back till now. I have a great new Dr. Who has helped me figure out the diet for me and I have successfully lost 15 lbs. With her help, but I lost motivation I felt alone and it was hard. I want to have someone to help motivate me and help me out during this change and that's what I'm looking for. Someone where I can be there for them and them for me.

Hi, milliebobilly -
I'm new here, too, and starting to make lifestyle changes that leave me feeling hopeful but a little nervous. I've always used food as a comfort, and I'm trying to move away from that to find support in healthier ways. I'd be happy to team up with you - we could support each other.2 -
Hi, I'm starting here also. You can add me. I have 46 lbs to go and a huge sweet tooth. I could totally use support or even if i have to report my stats to you and vice versa would be great13

You can definitely add me!! I’ve always been heavy and never really understood how it crept up on me. PCOS and insulin resistance has given me a name and now approximately 100lbs to drop.
I’m a body positive person, really friendly, occasionally funny0 -
