I am in the DFW area of texas. I am a mom of 2 boys (9 and 11), also have my twin nephews(17) living with me. I have been looking around the board and couldn't figure out which area I fit into, so I just went general. I am 40, Christian, and alternative. I am a stock broker that works in a call center. I dye my hair various colors, and have been working on pink chunks of late.
I weigh 305 and badly need to lose a bunch of weight. I am 40 and have have been overweight by varying degrees since I was 6. My husband has never had a weight problem and is just oblivious as to how to help motivate me. He is very competitive and it always turns into a competition. I have explained to him I just need a little prodding and positive words.
I am exhausted all the time, on blood pressure meds, and my youngest son just told me the other day he does not want me to die. So, once I wiped the tears away I decided I had to do something, cause I dont want to die either.
