Default ..And Now Begins The Healthy Portion of My Life
Hello...just joined the site today. I am currently 300lbs. My goal is to reach 150lbs. I only recently started on my journey to becoming healthy. 3 months ago, my husband and I quit smoking together and we are still going strong...Now, time to get my body healthy so I can be around for my family for a long time.

Hey Willow -

We have LOTS of places you might want to visit. To start, check out the 300+ club, or the 100 lb club. The first is a group for people with starting weights of 300 lbs or over. The second is a group of folks who are on their way to losing or have lost 100 lbs or more. Either would be a perfect fit for you.

We also have groups by age range, eating plan, etc, so look around. Can't wait to get to know you better!

Smile HI There
I am back too. I didn't stop working on my health, i just haven't posted for a long time..life got TOOOOOO busy. Like you I am focusing on health, not size. I have had 4 "clean" days with food and exercise..am very happy. COngrats on quitting smoking, that is my next major change, but I can only manage one thing at a time!

You are not alone! I, myself, began this journey wanting to lose over 150 lbs. I won't lie, it's a long journey, but it is SO worth it.

Keep at it, and the rewards will outweigh (pun intended ) any struggles!
