Default new girl on the block



just wanted to say hi! ive been around reading and soaking in all of the helpfull advice.. i'm 33 and have been overweight all thru my late twentys and thirtys.. i have 90lbs to lose.. and have procrastinated myself to death.. with the " i'll do it tomorrow" crap!
until this weekend.. i think i had a wake up call... a neighbor down the way from me had a heartattack.. besides feeling sad for his family.. i felt a great deal of anxiety about my lifestyle and the things i havent done to keep myself healthy.. i couldnt sleep all that night...

now.. im looking at myself thinking.. how can i start to live better.. i have highblood pressure.. im over weight.. and im depressed about all of the above..
seems like every morning i start out motivated.. and by mid day.. im eating crap that i shouldnt..

today im going to make a new start.. and i hope with support from others in my situation.. i can finally make it!
