Default Hello from Tennessee
Hey ladies! Just found this site accidentally while doing some research on a fitness program I've been interested in. I am VERY glad to have found it - and look forward to getting to know some of you!

About me:

Have been overweight most of my life... somewhere in all of that I ended up at a whopping 333 lbs. I lost some of that gradually over the last year or so - and when I was diagnosed with diabetes back in February, reality kicked in. I'm currently down to 248 lbs... 15 more and I'll have lost 100 lbs!!! That alone makes the rest of the battle seem SO less difficult. I remember at my highest weight thinking of the long road to weightloss - like it'd just never happen - but finally it is!

I have learned from my doctor that as well as I've done thus far, he believes I will fully reverse the diabetes issue by the time I get under 200 lbs.!

So - there's my story... Again, I look forward to taking part in these forums. Looks like an awesome place.

Casey
