Your in the right place. Good luck

Respect to all of you. We all can understand the pain, embarrassment and all that go with being overweight. I recently seen I post on another site with a man stated he couldn't stand overweight people. That we appall and enrage him. Needles to say he got a few words from me but it's just ignorance at its finest. I applaud anyone who tries to better themselves in any way. My moment among many listed above was when my Dr toldmei would be dead in a couple years cause of my weight, I was 42 years young..... Congrats to all of you and the best of luck. Feel free to add me as. Friend,motivater, and helper in any way I can.....

Mine is when my doc told me I'd be dead in three years..

This journey is definitely a roller coaster ride. Don't dwell on the stalls and small setba ka that will happen. Do us on the great things that are happening and are coming your way stY do focused and diligent in the "fight" .

Hi, i'm in Tucson and would be glad to help you out.. I'm a year out and down 195 lbs.

I'll be hitting the one year mark in a couple weeks.. I'm trying to get to the 200lb down mark, it's going to be close.. its been a journey but well worth it. Life is s much different then I expected, simple things like wearing a seat belt, fitting in a booth at the restaurant wearing "normal" clothes just to name a few.. it was hard at times but the good sure out weighs the hard and bad times. keep up the great work and good luck on your journeys.. I'm here to answer any questions I can or help in any way Frank
