Hi everyone! My name is Sarah and I live In Virginia. In the past, I have lost s substantial amount of weight (90lbs, 50lbs), but at the moment I am the heaviest I have ever been. I come from a family of large people and quite a few of them are joining this site at the exact same time, so I have a ton of support. That being said, I would like to gain support from others and provide as much support as needed to others. I am 5'6 and as you can see from my ticker, I have a LLLLLOOOOOOONNNNNGGGG way to go, but after reading some of the many success stories, I can not weight (pun intended). Ok I am attaching my ticker and I hope I do it correctly and I can not wait to be a member of the community

    Wow, I must admit to being overwhelmed by how friendly and supportive everyone is tonight. I can see why there are so many success stories on here, it seems like the community works together. I had a really bad year last year and I am banking on 2012 being steller. I would imagine the loss of 100lbs would bring unimaginable changes and I can not wait.
