Artychic2's Journal, 12 April 2016

Hello everyone, I've been trying to lose weight on and off for about 20 years. Since my last daughter was born 4 years ago I've gained 40 lbs. Now I need to lose about 90 lbs. I've been having a lot of health issues and I'm at a very high risk of being diabetic. At 238lbs and just 5' 3 the weight is taking a toll on me. I'm always tired, and have a lot of body aches and pains, especially in my back and feet. I know I need to make a change but it's really difficult for me to give up old habits and embrace change. Today is a new day! I'm willing to take that 1st step towards a healthier me.

Hi! Great choice choosing this site! I believe there r a few folks on here that were on meds and now they're not bc the made the changes they needed to. Good luck on your journey and remember it's a lifestyle change not a diet per se. Have a goal and an end date and be true to yourself. U got this!!
