Ready to take the plunge
 

Hi, I'm new! My name is Melissa or Lissa... whatever is fine. I've committed several times to doing something about my weight, but I'm finally ready to make this a life change not just until I reach a goal.

Over the past year my husband and I have been ttc baby #2 with much difficulty. On top of a few other things my weight seems to be causing complications with my ovualtion. Even if I were to use fertility drugs to control ovulation, I fear the pregnancy would be filled with complications and I just wouldn't feel 100% at my best to take care of two children later.

I'm currently between 215 and 210 my goal is to reach 160.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to getting to know you all.

Hi Lissa!

Welcome fellow Michigan resident! I know how you feel - having committed several times to lose weight only to fall off the band wagon a few weeks later... I too want to make this a permanent life change, but it's so hard when I love chocolate and pizza :) Good luck with your weight loss!

:welcome2: Lissa!!! Continued success on your lifestyle change!!
