Being tall and BIG isn't much fun...

  • Hi!

    I spent most of my day @ work googling for any kind of support groups and info about dieting for tall people... (surprisingly, one of my bosses was sick, and the other was away on vacation )
    Anyway, I stumbled across 3 fat chicks, and decided to join up... Maybe this's the place where I could be accepted.

    It'd be so much easier if I'd never been @ BMI 22 or less, but no... that's not the case... For the past 10 yrs I've been battling this ever mounting pile of fat, and now my health is starting to deteriorate at an alarming rate.
    To be completely honest, not all my health problems are the results of gaining over 150 lbs in 10 years, but most of 'em make dieting really hard.

    Dunno what to say... so I guess I'll stop here and wait for any kind of reaction...

  • Welcome JMsTyra!!!!

    You've come to a great place for encouragement (whatever your size). We have em all shapes and sizes here...so it's nice to have you.

    As a "tall" woman, I can say there are DEFINITE perks to being tall! I bet some of our shorter woman might think it's better to be tall and overweight than short and overweight. It's an old case of "the grass is always greener on the other side".

    In any event, your here to do something about it. Congrats on taking the first step towards a healthier YOU!
