Well Guys I'm on my way .... it's been a rough few years . My weight got the best of me about 5 yrs ago.

I was always a big girl , but I really let it get out of hand. But the last couple of months, I have been really unhappy with myself and I am taking the big step.

I saw this board and was so thrilled!

I really could use some support , Thanks in advance. Pray for me!

You've come to the right place! I've been back and forth here for the past couple of years, but never ready to really commit - but they keep taking me back :-) My top ever weight was 313, and I'm well on my way now, down to the mid 290's, and more importantly, feeling much better and eating much more healthfully. The ladies here have tons of great information, advice, and encouragement - not to mention it's a good way to distract yourself from the fridge when a craving hits! :-)

Sending all the positive vibes I can muster.


You know that if you didn't believe that you could do this, you wouldn't be here looking at this board.
