Well, that is about it, isnt it
I am young, a christian, I live in Michigan, and I weigh 270 lbs. I weighed 317 when I delivered my son last August. I went down to 289 after and in February started a weightloss group at church. From Feb to April I went down to 253. I have now gained back a few pounds eating whatever, whenever again (summer bbqs every weekend!). I am done. DONE.
I can do this. My whole family is extremely obese, my mom is 370s. My husband is 160 lol. I dont want my kids to see me like this, and I dont want them to be over weight. (I have almost 4 year old b/g twins, 2 year old boy and a 1 year old boy) I can eat healthy, Ive choosen not too. I am choosing health now. I need to be healthy. I did it before and lost 36 lbs, I can do it again. I have My fitness coach for the WII and will use it daily.
I am the only one that really stuck with the weightloss group at church. It was male and female and a few of us did, but I was a food ****
Fresh fruits, veggies, and meat. Little whole wheat pasta and virtually no bread. Yogurt, cottage cheese, and eggs. Whole wheat, low carb tortillas. I ate plenty of carbs, but they were from natural sources, not chips and cake
I am holding the weightloss group starting next week. I need to get things together, which is how I found this site. I have been very very encouraged reading the stories here. I love it.
Thats my intro, and I am sticking to it!
