Hi everyone,
I just joined and wanted to introduce myself. I have been physically active most of my life. I've had problems with rheumatoid arthritis, Lupus and osteoarthritis. The last year I've been having alot of problems with a mass of RA in my cervical spine. I recently discovered I have a syrinx (spinal cord cyst). I got down and got a 'I don't give a damn anymore' attutude. Needless to say I put on some extra pounds. Well I've snapped out of the 'I don't give a damn'. Now I do and I'm wanting to do something about it. I joined weight watchers and it works!!!!!! I lost several pounds. I'm a correctional officer and the state agency I work for did pay for employees to attend weight watchers. Because of budget problems, they cut that out and I can't afford the monthly fees. So here I am. This site is pretty awesome. They keep track of everything for you. Well that's pretty much my story. I hope everyone has a wonderful, healthy, goal meeting day!
