Hello everyone !!

I just found this site today and was really excited to read all the great things being said.

In February of this year I was at 425 lbs. and feeling pretty darn tired all the time, physically and mentally. I decided it was time to do something about it and flipped my lifestyle upside down. Hubby and I were going on a cruise in May and I wanted to be able to walk around and not feel hot, sweaty, tired and achy when doing it. Since starting with eating healthy and exercising 5-6 days a week I've lost 76 lbs. Still a long way to go but well on the way there !!

Can't wait to meet all of you!

Cheers!
Leslie

PS - We had a wonderful cruise and walking around was actually enjoyable !!

Hi Leslie I'm another newbie , I found this site yesterday, and the only down side is the fact that I wish I had found this site ages ago then I would probably not be in the sorry obese state I'm in now.
