Good Morning everyone!
I've been a "lurker" for quite some time and I have decided to join in the boards. My name is Sarah and I've had a weight problem most of my life. I am 30 years old and weigh 295 lbs. I'm actually down 5 lbs within the last 2 weeks since I've started exercising. I have a wonderful husband of 5 years and a 10 month old daughter. I want to get healthy and strong for my daughter. I want to see her grow up and have her own daughter someday, but I am afraid I won't be able to do that if I continue on my current path. I've decided not to "diet," but rather cut my portion sizes (my portions are out of control), reduce the amount of fast food/processed foods and exercise daily. I hope to post a few times a week about my progress. I've become very inspired by all of you and hope to chart my progress. Later!

Congratulations on a great start! Like you I've embarked on a pursuit of long-range improved health this time, and I feel like vanity isn't a driver for once. (It's not that I don't like the idea of looking better, but I especially want to be around for a long time!) Hope your success continues and that you'll stick out the journey with us. All the best, Annie
