Hi
 

Hey everyone! I'm new to the boards. I've been looking for that extra support and after reading some of the different posts, I think this is a good place to start.

I've been struggling with my weight for about 7 years and I'm finally ready to stop it for good. I'm not looking for the quick fix or to lose 100 pounds in a month. I realize that it took me 7 years to get to the weight I am and it won't come off in 2 months. I'm 26 yrs old and I weigh 249 at 5'7", so needless to say I'm not at my best health.

I look forward to meeting people and sharing and supporting others in this journey!

:welcome: and congratulations on trying to change your life! Looks like you have realistic expectations so you are off to a great start.

:welcome: And the best of luck to you!

Thanks to both of you. I'm really looking forward to sharing my struggles and victories with everyone here. I think it will really help me to stay accountable and reach my goals this time around!

:hug: G,day and :welcome3: you have certainly come to the right place, always plenty of support and someone ready to answer a question or two. Your attitude sounds good and thats a good start, :goodluck:.
