Hello everyone I do believe that I have finally gotten my mindset in place. Losing weight is truly a psychological journey and unless you are there nothing will help you. I feel I have been training for this for about 5 years, and now is the time. I look forward to chatting with you all and hope to be both inspirational and inspired by this venture. I need to lose 70lbs, as the saying goes the journey of a 1000 miles begins with the first step.

Why do I think I am here? Because I trained, I did this with quitting smoking and that took 3 years. My training was learning to shop and cook foods, research and compare, and know my triggers. Anyhow thanks for allowing me to join
