Hi Everyone :)
Hi Everyone!
I'm really excited to have found this forum! I'm a 36 year old mother of three. I work full-time as a registered nurse in a city near Toronto. I've been significantly overweight my entire adult life. I obviously have some personal issues I've been working on, but I'm starting to really get sick of the me on the outside. There's no way she represents who I really am!!!
I've tried to lose weight numerous times over the years, and had recently come to the decision that I was going to have gastric bypass surgery. As it turns out, I need to be a non-smoker (for 6 months) before they'll do the surgery. So, I thought I would give myself one last chance to make the changes myself.
Today is day 1. I am tracking what I eat, have not had a cigarette, and am planning on a walk later. Looking forward to meeting people with 100lbs to lose who are counting calories. I will need a place to be accountable. I think I've found it!
Good luck to all of you on your journey!!
