Hey everyone, My name is Barbi and im really excited to be here. It is so time for me to get some of this weight off. Im almost 37 and want to remain healthy for my children.

Im going to confess here what really motivated me to do this...... ok here is goes. My family has a big history of breast cancer.. i have an awesome dr. that wanted to get proactive with this and get me all checked out so he sent me for an MRI on my breasts. I go in all ready to take the MRI and I couldnt frickin fit into the machine!!!! I was shocked! So the weight has already started affecting my health. I cant get the tests I need t be on top of this cancer stuff. This was a few months ago and it took me a while to feel ready. i spiraled down for a bit but forget that. im back and deserve more that i give myself.

I am looking forward to using this board to help me out. hope everyone is doing well. Ill see you around!
