I'm new here, so I figured it would be good to post first on here and introduce myself!
I am an (almost) 23 year old living almost exactly in the middle of the United states! Here in the great state of Oklahoma. I think it goes without saying that I am here to meet friends and get some support in my weight loss endeavor.
I have always been a bigger girl though over the past few years I have ballooned to where I am now. I have had both medical and personal reasons that I have let myself get where I am, but I am tired of allowing these things to rule my life! It is for this reason that I have decided to finally allow myself to be completely honest for the first time. I cant remember the last time i was 100% honest about how much I weighed... I dont think i have 1 friend or family member who knows my exact weight, but its time to cut the bull ****.
I am 5foot9, I weight 250lbs. I am single, no kids, I have 3 crazy dogs, 1 cat, and a horse. (no, I dont live on a farm). I'm an artist and a designer.
I just started my "Diet blog" on here and it is titled "Fed-Up, Pissed off, and Doing Something About it!" I'm not sure where this journey will take me, but I've decided to fight till I get what I want.
You'll find that the ladies here are so supportive and encouraging. It's such a wonderful place. And remember, don't get discouraged. Weight loss is a lifelong journey, but so entirely worth it. You can do it! We can do it!
Good luck in reaching your goal, and congratulations in being honest with yourself. This is the one thing that has held me back for so long... not being honest with myself about my weight or how it made me feel, yet alone honest with others.
Now we're all accountable not only to ourselves, but to eachother, too. Now here's looking forward to success for us both x
Welcome to the forums and a good job starting off on the right foot. You remind me of a friends daughter that lives out your way in Broken Arrow. I look forward to reading about your progress and achieving your goals.
