Here we go

I'm a 30 year old nursing student who needs to loose about 100lbs to get into my healthy BMI area. What has jumped started this journey is my type 2 diabetic husband was placed on insulin a month ago after learning that his glucose was out of control again. We're both eating healthier and exercising more, but I decided that I wanted to get serious about loosing weight. I've only been tracking for about a week now through MFP, but I like it and find it pretty easy.
Hopefully we can both stay on track for our health and our lives.
