khaat Posts: 6 Joined: 2009/09/07	2009/09/07, 11:23 AM I just joined this site today. I need an affordable weight loss and exercise plan that is tapered to me & will teach me how to make healthy choices in a world that is loaded with unhealthy options. I want to lose almost 170 pounds and gain strength, despite a permanent neck injury. i cannot tell you how many plans i failed in the past. don't wish me luck--wish me willpower instead with lots of support and education along the way. :big_smile: khaat

Your's needs to take centerstage and always be your first focus. Without proper and healthy dieting, the weights and treadmills won't make a permenant dent.

Good luck on all your goals.:)
