    New and wondering

    is it wise to start this on Friday the 13th? :joy
    Today is my first day (again) of induction. I have been trying to get past this day for a few days now!
    I am 28, 241.5lbs, newly diagnosed with diabetes, and desperate to get my life back.
    I am married with a 4 year old son and a 2 year old daughter...I would like to be able to do things with my children. Right now I truly can not. I get winded so easy I can barely play with them anymore.
    I am looking forward to getting to know people here and very happy to have a community of like minded (and bodied) people.

    Thanks,
    Shay

        Shay,
        Come to the board often, especially when you are feeling weak. I cant tell you how many times just reading the posts of others that I have made it thru by coming here. Do eat something legal if you feel a urge coming on, drink your water and try to start some new habits. If you have little ones, take them out for a walk, even if its just a short one. Try everything you can, but dont give in to your urges. We are all here to help and have all been right where you are, your not alone!

        Never give up, if you have no goal you shall surely reach it.
