I'm new here and looking for friends and support. Feel free to read my profile to learn more about me. I look forward to meeting some of you for support. I'm at the point I've got to do something but I'm not sure what the best thing is. I have so much weight to lose. I feel like I'm bigger than everybody.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
