Time to take care of me

Hi Everyone,

While I could list a whole bunch of very valid reasons regarding how I got to where I am today, I think the bottom line for me is that I neglected myself. Everyone else came first and I put myself on the bottom of the priority scale. I'm not sure that was the wrong decision at the time but I do know that now is the time for taking care of me. I've got a lot of weight to lose and am very blessed that I have the ability now to focus on myself. Good luck to all of you on this journey and I look forward to all our successes.

    Feel free to add me if you need more friends/motivation :-)
    I'm a 34 year old mom of two, and I prefer the slow and healthy weight loss (more of a lifestyle change) to crash dieting.

    I agree totally! I raised a son, took care of an aging father and now feel like I need to be first. I would like to add you as well as a friend. You'll be my first one!!!
