New to W.I.S.H

[michaelwilliammidd]

Hey Everybody, I'm not new to Disboards but I am new to W.I.S.H. I have tried to lose weight many times ,as it has always been a problem for me, but seem to always fail. Knowing how helpful and supportive Disers can be in other areas I can't think of a better group to find support and encouragement from than ya'll. I need to lose about 60 pounds and will be seeing what I can do before my next trip to the World in November. I will also be doing the "Walking To Disney" challenge in the meantime for alot of my excercise...I have some ground to make up since I've got 1075 miles to get to by the end of November. Thanks for being there for everyone Disers, you guys are a huge help.
