Hello everyone! I weighed 286 pounds in January of 2010. Then I got to 30 of my weight goal to have my doctors tell me to get off of the Atkins diet. I was depressed and ballooned up to almost 300 pounds by the end of December 2011. My goal is 130 pounds. That means I need to lose 170 pounds. This website is just what I needed to keep me in check. The support of friends here is a gift that can not be measured. We are in this together. My tag is....We Can Do It With God's Help and the help from our Fatsecret buddies. Thank you to everyone. If I can encourage someone else along the way then I will feel that I have paid it forward. May God bless all of you in your journey.


Everything we are working towards in terms of our goals, can be ours...if we stick with it...and don't give up!

"That which we persist in doing becomes easier to do; not that the nature of the thing itself is changed, but that our power to do is increased."
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
