hey all,

I decided to start a food blog (on here). A little background- I'm 24, I am a child advocate, and I currently weigh almost 270 pounds. I decided in January that this was my year, when I was 280. 12 pounds in 6 months is not exactly what I was looking for. So, here I am, holding myself publicly accountable for what I eat. My goal is to lose 140 pounds, it's going to be a long journey, but here I am!

Good luck

It sounds like we're basically in the same place- I'm 25 and work with as a speech therapist with special needs kids. I started at 278 a couple of months ago and am at 265 today. My goal is to be out of the obese category and into overweight at 169 by June of next year.

Here's to some seriously hard work that will be seriously worth it!
