Hello,

I have been stalking this site for the past week as I come to terms with the fact that" I'm Tired of being sick and tired". Tired of letting weight hold me back from life and all that it has to offer. You all have been such a source of inspiration and I'm loving reading about your experiences, struggles and triumphs. Thank you all for being so transparent and sharing your stories. Your helping so many people each and every day.
