Hello everyone. I think it's awesome this forum is here and I am officially joining today.

I live in Cleveland, TN, which is just outside of Chattanooga (about 30 miles). I have joined a place called Spectrum. It is an awesome place. They have an awesome gym and you work one-on-one with a personal trainer. If you have read a lot of my posts, you wil know I am a paraplegic, which means I am paralyzed from the waist down. This place has equipment that the seats can be removed and you can roll your chair on it and use it. Cool eh??

This place is not just a gym. They also teach you how to eat. They have a dietician on staff, as well as a doctor. They promote a healthy eating lifestyle, not a restrictive "diet." :)

My goal for losing weight, besides for health reasons, is to get in shape for my December WDW trip. Good reason eh?? :)

Spectrum is a local thing, so I'm sure I'm the only one on this board with this plan. But I would like to post my progress and whatnot, if that's ok. I'm off to check out the WISH journals to see what they are.

Thanks for being here you guys! :)
