  • Hi!

    Hello all,

    Im Laura. I live in Alberta, Canada. Im the single mother of an amazing 7yr old boy. He really is the reason I am here. It is time to lose some weight and start feeling a little healthier. I have always been a heavier person, right from a very young age. I was very active in sports in high school which managed to keep my wt in control. After high school I went into the canadian armed forces. Again, with all the exercise I was in very good shape. Now I am 36 yrs old. I am at my heaviest wt. 234pnds. I am going to do this! Im not sure yet as to what my goal weight will be. I decided to take it 10pnds at a time. Im a nurse. I work shift work, which I think may be half the problem as I really eat at many differrent times during the day. Anyways, with some really hard work, I know I can take the wt off.

    The best of luck to all of us on our journey!!!

    Laura.
