Default New!

Hi everyone. My name is Mary and I am tired of being fat. I am 5'3", 220lbs (already lost 4). This place is awesome..So motivational..I think it will be just what I need to stay on the wagon. I always tell myself I want to lose weight, stick to it for a week or so, and then give into temptation. I think, "whats one hamburger going to hurt?" "Those fries can't be that bad"..I just can't do it anymore. My lowest weight at this height was 135..so I know what it feels like to be healthy..but starting college I just packed on the pounds, and now I almost hate to look in the mirror at myself because I know how fat I have become. I don't want to be skinny...I just want to be healthier.

I hope I get a chance to meet everyone!! This site rocks.

Thanks ladies. It's so nice to see people making actual progress with their dieting. Makes me realize it isn't impossible as I ty to make it seem.

Aww thanks for the encouragement. I feel like I am really dedicated this time. I have to control my urges, rather than let them control me! I don't want to see myself 100 McNugget Meals down the rode..I would probably weigh a ton more.
