Hello,

I'm reaching the point where I think some support will be helpful to me as I learn to manage my weight and health.

I went from 230 pounds as a teenager to 140, but it was involuntary weight loss. It was not a specific effort. I have gained some of it back and that's not good since I have health problems that I need to control. I am discovering just how difficult intentional weight loss can be and how easy it is to put on a few pounds.

I think it will be great encouragement to read others' efforts and success stories and share my own. I'm looking forward to getting healthier with everyone on here!

Welcome.and best for luck! I think the best thing is to have a plan, and being her helps because just being immersed in a culture of fellow people keeps it at the front of your mind. I love just browsing to see what other plans people try or their ideas to see if they could also work for me.also things like recipes. I hope it helps you too!
