Hello to all! I am brand new to this site. I am once again embarking on a weight loss journey and I am in need of some support and encouragement. I have a loving family but sometimes family cannot provide the encouragement, understanding, and support that a person trying to lose weight needs, especially when they don't have weight issues. I am happy to have found this site. I hope to be an inspiration to other as well as time passes. I have truly been inspired by the stories you have been sharing on this site. I am a 35 (36 this month) year old female and I need to lose at least 65 lbs. My biggest motivation now is that I would like to have a child before it's too late. I am recently married and it appears that my weight is playing a role in not getting pregnant (PCOS). Right now it seems so hard but I now I am in the right place. I have realized that I HAVE to do this. I know now that I have no other choice. Thank you for letting me share my story.
