My feelings are mixed at the moment as I really want help and need support in losing weight. BUT, at the same time I am afraid that someone will find out that I'm here and make fun of me.
That's my main problem, being made fun of. I'm constantly being cut down because of my weight. I HATE when one of my coworkers makes a comment about a customer being fat (not to them, after they've left.) Although it's not directed towards me, it hurts me.
I am 19 years old and incredibly overweight. I've always been overweight. I love my parents dearly but when I was younger they'd give me food as comfort. It's always been my comfort.
I've tried eating healthy, but it seems whenever someone cuts me down, I go back to old habits. I've tried excersizing but it just leaves me incredibly exhausted. I work from 5:30am-3:00pm, on my feet the whole period except for 15 minutes for a break.
I've tried going on more walks, with 4 dogs it proves to be enjoyable, but the whole exhaustion things goes into play. My feet KILL me by the end of the day.
Work is another problem. I work in fast food = free food for me.
The last time I weighed myself I was nearly 220 lbs. I'm not sure where I'm at at the moment (I do not own a scale, but I will be purchasing one.) I am around 5"6'.
I'd like to be around 140 lbs. Another issue is me thinking it's going to take forever to lose the weight. How long has it taken you all to lose around 80 lbs?
Anyhow...
A bit more about myself. My name is Kay and I am located in Florida. Dogs and photography are my passions in life. It's funny, I'm heavily into dog nutrition, my dogs eat a complete natural diet, get plenty of excersize..... and I'm like this!
Here are my four kids:
