Hi everyone! My name is Lisa and I am new to this site. I am 44 years old and married to Brad. We have two sons 23 and 21. I have been reading a lot of the posts and find there is a lot of support here. I have been overweight most of my adult life and have tried to lose weight in the past. Most of these attempts have been half-hearted at best! I have decided now is the time to be serious. My father has had weight problems most of his adult life and is now in very poor health because of it. I truly do not want to be in the same situation as I age. I am excited and ready to do this. I started Monday, June 8th and have lost my first pound! Yea!!!! Only 84 left Can't wait to meet everyone!
