Thumbs up Bundled up in Bama.

The reality of so many people struggling with weight loss in Alabama alone is staggering.

And the prospect of who-knows-how-many of those people using this forum for support lets me know that I've got a place among them.

I've been overweight for my entire life, thus far, but I've managed to make some real progress lately. I weighed 200 pounds at age sixteen. Five years later, I'm finally enrolled in a university-based program that introduced me to routine exercise using heart rate monitors.

Here's to hoping that we can all keep taking steps toward a healthy existence!

Hi there and welcome. I am not from Alabama or even have ever lived there. But I do know it is a state with an unhealthy rep.

Since you live there and I am presuming you grew up there - what are some of your thoughts on why?

Good luck. This is a great resource!
