in Introduce Yourself
I don't have anything creative to write here. I'd tell you my whole story but it's way too long to type in here- so i'll make it short. I've been heavy all of my life. I've struggled with depression although now i have more good days than bad. I have a lower back injury that limited my mobility but that is in the past now (hopefully). So now, i am a stay at home mom for the time being and i'm looking to lose at least 50 lbs. If i don't, this back issue most likely will happen again (or so i'm told). I don't want to lose the weight just because of my back, though. I have a young daughter who i can't keep up with. I don't know if something "clicked" today or what but today is the day i start my journey. Feel free to add me- i can use the help. Thank you.
