in Introduce Yourself
HI I'm new to this site but I'm very excited about losing this weight. I have been overweight my whole life! I have been trying to have a Gastricbipass to eliminate my diabetes. I have run into some road blocks and am taking this to mean for me to get off my *kitten* and eat good healthy foods and to move my body! Please don't get me wrong I believe that GB can and does help a great many people, I just a being pushed by God to move in another direction. I have a little support at home with my husband and kids but I am going to need more so please feel free to reply. Going out for a long walk. Looking forward to being able to run in a marathon.
M

    Thanks. I have been diabetic for 17 years. I was in good control during all four of my pregnancies but as soon as I delivered them I went back to my old habits plus "finishing" their food.

    You sound like you are determines to succeed. This site has such a strong friendship base and words of support and understanding from others who know what you are going through will make such a difference.

    I wish you every success. You can do it.

    Feel free to add me as a pal.
