I am completely new to this site,in fact I have never been to a weight loss forum before. I thought that since I was taking a different approach to weight loss I would go all out and join a support group.
Currently I am 234lbs, down 4 from the beginning of my journey one week ago. It is the highest I have ever been in my life and even though I never "thought" I looked like I was over 200lbs, the realization has hit me that pictures don't lie and I am much larger than I was capable of seeing in the mirror.
Time to make a change for the better. I am tired of the restrictions that I have put on my everyday life because of my embarassment of my weight. I won't even get life insurance to take care of my family if something happens to me because I don't want them to weigh me.
I hope to get to know some of you during this process and gain some much needed support.
