Thank you Kathy for your post. I am new too and not sure where to
fit in here. I have been on and off my computer all day today looking
through this website. It is very encouraging to find such an active site.
I'm 45, live in CT, married 23 yrs with 3 teens. I manage a medical practice.
I've been overweight my entire life...except for a year or so toward the end
of college. I have made thousands of half hearted attempts to lose weight.
I'm now at the point of being so completely uncomfortable in my skin. I want
to change and I am afraid of how hard this is going to be. If I don't do something, I can easily see myself continuing to gain. I"m at 270 now, I'm
5'7", I have high BP, and I'm exhausted....absolutely exhausted.
So, what's next? I've also joined WW online, again. I find that the
WW program is structure that I need and I really like their online
food tracker tool.
Tomorrow is back to work after being off since 12/23. I've planned
some healthy food choices to bring to work and I'm going to check back
in on this website.
You can do this.
