Hello:

Nova Scotia here. We all must read the same magazine. That's how I found it. I am at my heaviest that I have ever been and I am looking for any help I can get. I have type 2 diabetes...my blood pressure is starting to go up ( could be from worry about the extra weight and the diabetes) but I want to live a bit longer.

I am tired of trying to "go it alone". I need help and support. I hope this is the place for me.

Thanks.
Dallas

Thanks:

I have spent some days and hours trying to navigate this site. I have just found my replies.

I am still plugging away at it and hopefully its working. Its not easy. I am trying to get some exercise in every day but finding motivation is very hard. I have not felt this bad in years. I am not liking what i see in the mirror and any help and support will go a long way. My boyfriend is trying but all he is doing is aggravating me. I know he means well but he is a man that has never had a weight problem.

I check the site every day and it does me good to know that there are many of us in the same boat.

I will be back.

Coming here does help! I've only been coming here a week but in that time I've done well. When I feel weak, I read here for awhile and know I can go on for the evening and keep myself in check. I logged in on lunch today for just a few minutes until I felt better. I'm an emotional eater and coming here is a whole lot better than sticking a Hershey bar in my mouth!

Welcome, we are glad you are here. We can help each other through. Hang in there!
