New here anyone wantto be my friend?
Hi everybody! I am new on here just signed up today and gt in my first workout. Last month my Mom was diagnosed woth Diabetes (my dad already has it) and had a cancerous tumor the size of a football removed from her abdomen. I am turing 29 in 2 days and with a loving husband and 2 daughters at home I want to becoem a better person. This is the year of change for me! I am going to a counsler to help me boost my self-esteem, I already eat healthy by cooking all my family's meals and limiting the amount and types of processed food that I use. I have a lot of real life friends but our scedules don't connect often enough for me to workout with them so i figure if I make some friends on here we can help motivate each other!

Hey there
I just joined recently and looking for someone to help motivate and to help motivate me.
I'll tell you a little about me.
I am 28 from Pennsylvania. I live with my fiance, he is a teacher and I am a payroll specialist. I lost my mom when I was 13 from Ovarian Cancer and have had a cancer scare myself. My father is close to 400 pounds and has High blood pressure and borderline diabetic. My step-mom now has diabeties and now my brother is borderline diabetic as well. It's amazes me how much body fat and lack of excerise can really effect your body.
I am about 80 pounds overweight with 40% body fat. That really scared me and with a family health history like that I had to take serious action immediately.
I also just got engaged and want to look good for my wedding and to start out healthy to have a family.
I joined a gym and got myself a personal trainer. He is teaching me all out nutrition, proper excercise and all other kinds of good stuff. The most important thing right now is keeping a food journal, which I am now on day 3! So far so good.
If you want to stay in touch please let me know and we can share our progress!
Best Wishes,
Jen

Hello there new friend!
Hi! I'm new to this site too! I'm 28 and live in Texas with my boyfriend. After trying plan after plan, I am done! I have a new food plan, and exercise plan and with the help of this site, and new friends, I am fired up to do this! I would love to have some support on here and would love to support you girls as well! My father died almost 5 years ago now from cancer, and he had diabetes. Both my parents have struggled with their weight their whole lives, but I WILL NOT! This is my goal. Would love to keep in touch and anyone else who cares to care, jump on board! Look forward to hearing about you progress!
