Hi...I've been using this site for about a week now and it's really helping me a lot. I'm currently weighing in at 315 lbs and know that I have a long road ahead of me. I was recently told by my Dr. that If i don't do this I may not be around to see my 6 yr old son grow up as I'm starting to have a lot of health problems. That really scarred me and is my motivation to get my life changing event started. I think this site is just what I need to help me along the way.

    Welcome Jooles. I know you can do this. You have a great motivation but remember that you are doing this for you too. You will begin to see how much better eating healthy food can make you feel.
    Because all moms are heroes you are being a great role model for your son.
