It takes courage to look in the mirror and realize that we have lost control...not in the sense of how many sandwiches or sodas, but control of our own lives. I can share the awe of one day stepping on the scale and realizing that you are on the "200" side. Depressive and lethargic feelings have kept me on the 200 side for far too long. I too am embarking again on this journey and I see that this site really gives the support we need.
I recently got engaged and will be getting married this year as well! Let's make this year count...
Many Blessings and Good Luck
