Hello:

Nova Scotia here. We all must read the same magazine. That's how I found it. I am at my heaviest that I have ever been and I am looking for any help I can get. I have type 2 diabetes...my blood pressure is starting to go up ( could be from worry about the extra weight and the diabetes) but I want to live a bit longer.

I am tired of trying to "go it alone". I need help and support. I hope this is the place for me.

Thanks.
Dallas

Welcome Dallas!
All the support you need is right here on this site! Tonnes of information about diets, recipies,exercise, etc!
You don't ever have to "go it alone" again!!

Thanks:

I have spent some days and hours trying to navigate this site. I have just found my replies.

I am still plugging away at it and hopefully its working. Its not easy. I am trying to get some exercise in every day but finding motivation is very hard. I have not felt this bad in years. I am not liking what i see in the mirror and any help and support will go a long way. My boyfriend is trying but all he is doing is aggravating me. I know he means well but he is a man that has never had a weight problem.

I check the site every day and it does me good to know that there are many of us in the same boat.

I will be back.

Coming here does help! I've only been coming here a week but in that time I've done well. When I feel weak, I read here for awhile and know I can go on for the evening and keep myself in check. I logged in on lunch today for just a few minutes until I felt better. I'm an emotional eater and coming here is a whole lot better than sticking a Hershey bar in my mouth!

Welcome, we are glad you are here. We can help each other through. Hang in there!
