Welcome to the forum LeeAnne. Everyone here is very nice and patient answering all the wannabe losers questions!

I'm just starting my journey too and we sound very similar. I have about 100 pounds to lose to be "normal" and have sleep apnea, but unlike you I've already developed my co-morbidities: high blood pressure, high cholesterol, pre-diabetes from PCOS, GERD, knee & foot pain, pressure incontinence and the afformentioned sleep apnea. For me, the decision isn't if, but when. I'm going to a weight control clinic appt on 9/15 where I hope they will tell me my previous weight loss attempts and supervised diets will count towards their requirements.

Good luck in your journey! Oh and LisaBoston is from Canada, but I think she's on a cruise right now. Her entire story is on here if you'd like to read about her success.
