Just starting...finally!
 

:carrot: I had a medical wakeup call when an insurance company refused to issue me Long Term Care insurance because of my weight. It told me I couldn't hide anymore, that someone was betting I was going to become very ill or die I started yesterday at 229 pounds with a goal of 130, my prewedding weight of 35 years ago. I appreciate any support you can give me. What I've been reading is sure impirational.

Welcome welcome! You'll find so much amazing support here, it's awesome! I'd suggest picking out a couple of threads to go to regularly cause it really helps to have a small group to connect with! Also grab a ticker cause it's fun to move the marker...

:smug: Thank you for the welcome. I've lost one pound and feel motivated. The weekends are hardest since my husband works and I have to monitor myself but I'm learning (like talking to you instead of eating!)

How do I get a ticker? I find it hard to find things on this site.

Go to User CP (control panel) and click on "Edit Signature"- then follow the instructions there to add a ticker to your signature!

Welcome (I'm a newbie too!):)

thank you for the info. How did you do over the weekend. I lost another pound, that makes 3 so far, but last night was hard. I was tired and had grapes and Am cheese. At least I didn't binge on sugar. Have a good day. Keep in touch.
