S/C/G: 236/236/136

Height: 5'2"

Default Need to Lose about 100lbs!

Eek! How and why did I let it go this far before I really decided to do something about it? Well I am here now and hope that finally I can stick to losing weight and taking care of myself for once. I have been overweight the majority of my life but now it has gone to far. I went to the doctor yesterday and found that currently I am tipping the scale at 236lbs! Normal weight for someone my weight is around 136lbs.

Well everyone, good luck to you all!
We can do this! =D

You've come to the right place. We help each other.....I love it here. People on here can most of the time answer any question you may have. And knowing other people are struggling and it isn't just you alone out there, helps me big time! Welcome!!! ps...even if you go off plan or slip up some, dont stay away. Keep coming back here.....people and their good habits tend to rub off on others.....
