Default Doing this by myself hasn't worked for me

Hello,

This is brad new for me. I am such a private person, It has been said that I am hard to get to know. This is the problem! Being shy and independent hasn't made me successful in my weight loss journey.

I do want to come off like a loner, I'm not. I have a great family and close friends, they just do t have weight as a constant struggle.

Ok so... Now for some of that private stuff that makes me uncomfortable. I am in my mid-20's, I have a career I love and I have been waiting. I have been waiting for a very long time for my life to start, for something to happen to make me say, "well there it is, your living now." A recent epiphany has made me realize, how stupid this is. I am just letting life pass me by without taking control!

So this is a part of me taking control, I want to become healthy, to be happy with the person I see in the mirror, to take chances, and most of all to live everyday. No more mindless out of control eating and tomorrow is another day consolations. Today is the day!

I look forward to the support and the opportunity to return the favor.
