Hello, my name is Carol. I'm 38 and I've been overweight my entire life. Surprisingly though I don't have a low self-image or anything. I actually do like myself.
I've been on many diets and all of them failed so I just embraced the fact that I was going to be fat. But then I got a wakup call. I started banging into doorways (misjudging the width - thought I could fit through easily but I couldn't) and that really hit home with me. Since then I've been on a mission to lose the fat. I'm taking a number of steps in doing this but I'll save it for another thread as there's bound to be one here with the actual methods or techniques we're all using.
Hope to get to know you guys better. If this place has a pm feature, feel free to pm me anytime.
