Hello everyone... I am used to being at the Christian Mom board, but I need support in other areas. Let me tell you a little about myself. I am 26 and live in Arkansas. I am married to a Wonderful Man and we have a 7 month old daughter. I have been overweight most my life, however now looking back on it, I was overweight in my mom's eyes (boy is that another post) I was only 150 in high school, popular, cheerleader, had great friends.. but according to her, I had so many friends because I made everyone look better. Boy I bet she wished I weighed only 150 now. At my doctors appointment today I weighed in at 278. I was there because I needed medical clearance for a gastric bypass. But I am not convinced that is what I want. Especially since I dont know if I want to have anymore children. My BMI is 46. Anywho... I need to lose weight. I am out of breath and I havent even begun to run around after my daughter. My dad died fairly young (63) of an M.I. Anyway... I am new... hoping to make friends I need help and hope you can push me along. I would love to know secrets to help, in addition would like to know a little more about the board, and what it is I need to do. What are the journals?

I hope to make everyone's aquaintance.
