I've been a lurker on this forum for a while now, and last week started a new (and hopefully final) effort to lose my substantial excess weight. I've found this to be a very helpful resource and everyone seems very friendly, so I've decided to take the plunge and stop lurking.
I will do it this time. I don't want to spend anymore time unhealthy or feeling unattractive. These are going to be my best years.
So hi, and thanks in advance!
