As soon as I came out i was a fattie, they had to put me on a skim milk diet because i absolutely would not drink water!
In my baby pictures I couldn't have been more than a year old and I had 3 chins and my arms looked like 3 huge marshmellows! I see videos for when I was only 3 and I looked like the red M&M on those commercials with fat arms neck face and legs! As I started growing I didn't look so squished together, but I was still so huge and over double the weight of all of my classmates. In MS i reached nearly 250lbs yet I was getting up at 5 in the morning and swimming laps (i was on the swim team) until 8 and from 8-9 we lifted weights and I was on the soccer team, did cardio, and all of that. By that time my eating habbits had gotten a lot worse so there was really no hope for me no matter what exercise I was doing everyday! In HS I stopped with all of my activities because my weight was effecting my position on my teams and I was pretty much too embarrassed to continue any way. I was 250lbs in HS and ate 2 candy bars+chips+soda for lunch EVERYDAY. After highschool I lost 40lbs the WRONG way, in fact I'm sure most of that was only muscle that I lost. I gained the 40 back, plus 60 and hear I am now.
It is really sickening . . . but I find myself asking the question How think can I really get? Will I always be overweight even though I am slowly but surely losing my obese weight . . . :[
Is there anyone out there that is like me and managed to get into a healthy weight range that is not overweight?????
