Post Hello from Middle of Nowhere
Hello everyone. I found this website by accident. I <3 it so far... (Deep breath) Here goes... My heaviest weight was 275 (I felt like dying). I was down to 245 but somehow some way, I have gained 15 lbs. I have recently made a bet with one of my girlfriends that whoever reaches 150 first will buy dinner and drinks. I hate to lose. Plus, I want my life back. I have health issues and much to my doctor's severe unapproval, I have went off all of health meds. I have felt better since discontinuing meds than I have in a LONG time. I have been spring cleaning my house and sleeping like a normal person. What all does this site have to offer? Any exercise programs or dvds anyone recommends would be very much appreciated. Thank you! Have a great Memorial Day!

Hi and WELCOME!

There are some great threads here for exercise and dvds and different programs. Lots of variety of experience. Personally, I'm doing the Wii Fit because I have a back injury and need to keep it gentle for a while. I would love to take long walks but it is WAY TOO HUMID outside for me (just moved from a high desert area to the south. Eek!)

I need to say that I get worried when I hear of people going cold turkey off meds without help of their doc. There are many problems that could arise without you even knowing. If your doc isn't helpful, please find another. I don't know what kind of meds you were referring to but please be careful!

Again, welcome!

Welcome. My Hubby and I have a running joke that the 'middle of nowhere' is right next to 'the back of beyond,' but north of 'the boondocks'. Since Chicks can be over-whelming at first, I suggest you look for a support group or challenge to join; a small group of friends to help keep you motivated, find one you like that fits your needs, and just post to join.
