Better get this over with! :)

Thought since I finally posted on another board I best introduce myself! I'm coming to the end of my second week on here and have really enjoyed this site. What got me started trying to control my eating was when I realized I wouldn't be able to go to my nephews graduation because the seating is stadium seating and there's no way I could do the stairs, it made me realize how close I was to becoming disabled due to my weight. How mortifying, I'm disgusted with myself! I've been overweight my whole life and although I wont have all my weight off by the time I reach 50 at the end of this year I will be much lighter! I don't have a lot of time to be on these boards but would love to get to know some of you :smile:
