Hello Everyone,

My name is Melinda and I'm a nursing student in Texas with 150 lbs to lose. I was hoping to join you all to help support each other.
Thanks!

Welcome to the board Melinda. You have come to the right place. I haven't been here for long, but as far as I can tell these a great bunch of ladies. Good luck and keep us posted.

Hey there texasrose,

I'm new to this support group as well. I am currently at the highest weight I have ever been at. I am being monitored for high blood pressure and I feel miserable. I know I need to lose weight, but I feel so overwhelmed at the thought of losing 150 pounds.
I was able to lose 50 pounds several years ago, but have gained it all back, plus some.

I'm hoping to incorporate some new strategies this time around and posting here is one of them.

I look forward to posting with you.
