I am new here and glad I found this site! I am sick and tired of being sick and tired and I am dedicated to getting healthy and getting this weight off!!!!! It is SO painful, physically & emotionally and I am finally going to lose it for good!

Hi uniquelyme330,

I know just how you feel about the sick and tired of being sick and tired! I have missed so many years of my life hiding out because I hated how I look. There is hardly a picture of me with any of my children or grandchildren because I always avoid cameras. That is just wrong. I am glad you are determined, you can do it! I am determined too. I am only sorry it took me this long.

Thank You for the reply!
I too have missed many years and robbed myself of the enjoyment in life that I deserve and I just cant stand to go another day making myself think that this is just how it has to be....I REFUSE!!!!
I am on a journey, not to be skinny....but to be healthy, although I know I have set a pretty lofty goal to be within the realm of "what they say is a healthy weight"....I believe along this journey I will know where I am comfortable and healthy, So we will just have to see where that is!
It is great to be on here and meet people like yourself that are willing to share their feelings and journey with me as well!
I hate the camera too....eek! Was debating taking some starting pics and monthly progress pics, but......I dont know if I will have the courage to post them on here
One good choice at a time and one day at a time........YES....WE CAN DO THIS!
