Hi y'all. I'm Kelly. I've tried Weight Watchers a few times, and I cheat horribly when I do it. I recently cancelled my online subscription because it felt like I was wasting my money. I try things, and don't stick with them.
I have an eating problem. I eat when I'm happy, or sad, or bored, or angry, or contemplating things. I do not exercise like I should. I would rather sit and watch television or play a game on the computer or go for a drive than exercise.
I eat things that are not healthy. I am in the worst shape of my life. I am 5'7" and weigh 208. I have no strength or endurance any more. I used to be so strong, even though I have never been a "skinny" girl, I was always strong and had good endurance. Now I'm not even that anymore.
I'm posting this because I need to say it, and get it out there. I need to be able to talk about it, and I can't talk about it before I admit it.
Quite honestly I've started this half a dozen times and not posted it, because I'm new to this board and I don't know anyone, and it seems like I'm making myself really vulnerable in putting it out there. But I have to get healthy again. I saw an old picture of myself last night, and I went to look in the mirror, and I just cried.
Thank you for reading this, and I'm hoping I can learn things here to help me break past the compulsive eating, and learn to be healthy again.
