Hell0 :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: My Name is Melissa I just started this with a very sweet gal i meet in the pool a few days ago. I would love to have all the friends and support i can get. I have been very sick. I have diabetes, high blood pressure, very high cholesterol, my kidneys are not filtering very good, and i take more meds than i can name. My doc thinks it is very important for me to lose weight. Im at 280lbs, i know i will never be thin but i would like to see the other side of 200. I have 3 children that are 7,13,19 that i would like to see grow and blossom in their lives. At the rate now my doc says i could have a stoke or die in just a few years. Prayers and positive words would be a blessing

    That's a very long list of reasons to get healthy and fit! You don't have to be a size 8 to be healthy. We will work on this together and you will get those numbers down. You are aware of what you need to do and that is in your favor. You got this girlfriend! You are going to be around a long time for your husband and kids if you keep going to the gym and working out. Seriously, we can motivate each other and get there together!
