I'm a 21 year old Australian.
I've had problems with my weight for years now, I was an overweight child and am now an overweight adult. The obsticle of weight has always seemed impossible, but I've come to the realisation that I must do something about it.
I'm currently 124kg - my heaviest was 135kg at 18 years old. A small achievement, but I have noticed the kilos are creeping up again.
I've just finished my second day of calorie counting - keeping under 1200kcal. Numbers soothe me.
I'm going to start Charlean Extreme next week, for the exercise.
I party hard - every weekend - with copious amounts of alcohol. I have to change my tune and drink less, as that's a large factor in my problem. More dancing while I'm out won't be a bad thing however.
I am heavily involved in my local hardcore punk community, where the emphasis is on DIY. It's time for me to look at my own life and decide that I have to fix this now, because it's all down to me.
