Hi guys!! I am brand new to this "thing" (meaning blogging)...my co-worker told me about this website and I just can't believe it!!!! It's almost like I have found heaven - meaning that there are people out there like me!
I don't have a picture yet to upload - I am working on that and should hopefully have my "before" pic up shortly. As you will see from my weight tracker I have lost 100lbs already. However I am having trouble giving myself credit for that...I have never "owned the #" before - it disgusted me (and...truth be told - it still does). So when people see the before pic and how I am now they are shocked. But I still feel like I was in the before pic.
*SIGH* I need a major change of attitude/the way I see myself. I have never ever been thin in my life. I was always the biggest person wherever I was (school, family functions, public outings, etc) and so, bizarrely enough I find I am struggling with losing weight now. I've been told that I am stepping out of my comfort zone - how awful is that??? Feeling comfortable with weighing almost 400lbs!
I have a god-daughter that means the world to me and I want to be there for her when she grows up (she is 2.5 years old right now). I guess I am looking for the support from people who have been where I am, and maybe are there right now. I am looking forward to chatting with everyone and hopefully sharing my success with all of you!
I look forward to hearing from y'all!
