Hello from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Hello everyone! As I was making my bed up this morning (right after I had to brush the 'tater chip - yeah, tater. It's a Southern thang :smile: - crumbs off the sheets) I decided it was time to do something. I put the rest of the chips in the garbage disposal. So here I am. I am going to try to laugh through this journey to keep from crying. I hope that - no I WILL- put as much energy into this healthy lifestyle change as I did to sitting in my recliner eating chips and watching Storage Wars reruns. So I'm gonna take this one day, scratch that, one minute at a time. Any helpful tips will be greatly appreciated.
