Hi everyone. I am lloking for any support that I can get. I wne tot he doctor passed all my tests an now I ready to lose the 60 pounds I need to get in my healthy weight range. I am 5'2" and 190. My doctor just told me I need to get to 130. Stroke runs in my family and I wa just told I was in high risk. I've always been pretty active but in the last 3 years I really let myself go. Any help and motivation is greatly appreciated.

Hi debbpurdy,I'd pretty new here and like you i need
to loose some weight too, i have high blood pressure,
so i filled in my profile and started to eat healthy
and exercise using the home work out that was provided
by the free trainers although a bit sore to start with,
i am feeling some benefits already and i have lost three
pounds in my first week. you have taken the first step,
so all you have to do now is the hard work and i am sure
you will see some results, keep reading as many of the
boards as pos, these will give you any info you need,
if there are any things that you don't know or understand
then post them on the boards. good luck.
