Well, here I am, another newbie come to join the pack. Don't really know what else to add... Er. I've had a weight problem since about the 5th grade. That is my chubbiness started. I was chubby right up until highschool, that's when I started to get "heavy". Then with each year I seemed to steadily gain more and more weight.

So now I am here. 280-ish pounds. Which was a bit of a shocker since my previous high was 275. And I always seemed to fluctuate between 250-275 the past year, so I knew/know I have to get my butt in gear before I end up reaching the 300 mark.

I'm not horribly out of shape, but not exactly in the best shape possible. I was doing Zumba classes once a week, but a non-realted injury kept me out of the gym for a month. My inactivity was probably the reason for my new high.

A new exercise regime and maintaining my healthier eating habits will hopefully help give me a push. Anyways, I hope to meet likeminded buddies and have been reading the board these past few days.

Hello and welcome! I'm fairly new myself. I understand the chubby kid to overweight teen to heavy adult phenomenon. I wish I knew places like this existed as a teenager I think my "fittest" time was when I was 14. Then I got a job at McDonalds. hah.

The important thing to remember is that you're here and willing to try now. Don't give up hope. I've found nothing here but supportive people in the same boat with more experience and more insight.

Welcome!

Haha, gosh. Man, I'm sure I woulda been a lot bigger as a teen if I got a job at McDonald's. Talk about temptation.

Thanks for the welcome!!

Welcome yes I'm 225 n its sooo hard but wth someday lol I will b fit
