Newbie from Hawaii....Wanna be healthy for my Grandkids

My name is Seana and I am 42 years old, I live in HAWAII. I've been a member for a couple weeks, and haven't really added any friends yet. I think a good SUPPORT SYSTEM leads to our SUCCESS in anything we head out to do. In high school I was one of those “skinny" girls . Never had a weight issue, but once I had my first child at 21, that's when I started putting on the extra weight. After each one of my daughters, I've gained 20 extra pounds. A few weeks ago, I went to the ER for a terrible headache, to find out that my BP was extremely high and that's what woke me up! I quit smoking and started to log my meals and walking a few minutes a day or every other day. Some days are ALOT harder than others to stick to it. But I am determined to be around for my kids and soon to be grandchild! One thing that I have conquered was the urge to smoke a ciggarette when I'm stressing. So I do have the WILL, I just gotta find a WAY that will work for my weight loss!
