Eek! How and why did I let it go this far before I really decided to do something about it? Well I am here now and hope that finally I can stick to losing weight and taking care of myself for once. I have been overweight the majority of my life but now it has gone to far. I went to the doctor yesterday and found that currently I am tipping the scale at 236lbs! Normal weight for someone my weight is around 136lbs.

Well everyone, good luck to you all!
We can do this! =D
