well this is it....I have my mind set and I AM GOING TO DO IT!! I have slowy been putting on weight over the last 10 years and I hate it. I don't want to go anywhere because of my weight and I am embarrassed of how i look. I have actually been eating pretty healthy for awhile now, but something isnt working. I don't put salt on my food but have I have high blood pressure that will have to be controlled with diet and exercise if I don't want to be put on meds. I worry that I will end up like my mother who is only is 57 yrs old, and is in horrible health( heart blood pressure and diabetes to just name a few).Those are my main reasons for changing my life style....and I am going on my first cruise this fall and I want to be able to enjoy myself and not be worried about my weight! Headed to the gym in just a bit!!!

Good for you Tara - I hit the same point exactly two weeks ago today! I decided enough was enough, and I have not looked back! I feel good about myself and the slow progress I am making! You can do it!! Way to go!

Good for you, I am just like your mother, high b/p and diabetic, a stint in my left coronary atery but diet can change all that. I know longer take pills for diabetis, my b/p is normal my blood work was much improved and that was only after 3 months on my diet. I can hardly wait for my next check up to see how much more improved things are. Make the committment, see yourself at your goal and stay focused on it, nothing is worth cheating and stealing that dream from you.
