Hi everyone.

I've been lurking in and around this thread for a bit now. Thanks for sharing your ups and downs, tips and strategies. I am trying again to be healthy. I have a lot of weight to lose for health reasons. I gained all the weight I lost and then some. And I am feeling the consequences.

Any way, thanks for being a support without even knowing it.

Oh and I walked 1 mile Wednesday and 2.5 miles today (in too much pain Thursday). It's a start. I'd like to get up to 5 miles/day and do a few other things. I may or may not be an overachiever. And I am tackling the eating department. I'm not big on counting and measuring and group meetings. But I know I can reach my goal. I gain this weight over night. So I know it will take time to lose it, retrain my brain, break old habits and learn new ones.

Ok enough rambling. Thanks again.
