                    Hey there.  I'm new to this site, and am unsure of where to go from here.  I'm 29, a bit over 300 lbs, and in desperate need of a healthier lifestyle.  I have chronic back pain, and have been dealing with depression for many years.  I would appreciate it if some people out there could friend me so I could be part of a larger support group.  Thanks.
