S/C/G: 220

Height: 5'7"
Default New, very nervous
Hey guys,
I am new to this site and am sadly not too new at trying to lose weight. I was a string bean in high school and was involved with dancing and cheerleading. My senior year I broke my back and have slowly begun (ok not so slowly maybe) to gain weight.
I am currently at 220 and am wanting to make it down to 160 pounds. I know that is a pretty hefty goal especially by October. I have met a really sweet man and with no pressure from him I decided I needed to do this. I am very excited to get back in shape and make a life change, but am very nervous because I don't want to hurt my back in the process.
Thanks for all your support ahead of time!
