New: Time to get serious

Options
I have been over weight for a long time now, and I knew that my weight was a serious issue but I didn't realize how serious until I got my recent doctor's report. Things aren't so good for my age. Actually, they are pretty critical at this point. Per my doctor's request I am looking to lose sixty pounds. He would like to see me at 125. Which I'd like to see me there too. However, I can no longer play around or make up excuses. It's time to get serious. My health depends on it.
Sometimes I can get side tracked and want to venture off somewhere else so I need people who are strong enough to call me out, but who are nice, kind, and have a sense of humor. In return I promise to do the same.
Also, even though I know there are a lot of great men on here I ask that you please not send me a friend request. I have nothing against you it's simply just out of respect for my husband. Thank you for understanding.
