Welcome good to have you here

Dana, glad to have you join us! Since Chicks can be overwhelming at first, I suggest you look for a Support group, Chat, or Challenge to join. Small groups of friends to help keep you motivated and make it easier to get connected. Find one you like that fits your needs, or inspires you, and just post to join.

Wow I am sorry to hear that- welcome and good luck! Best advice I can give is find a plan that works for you and take it one day at a time
