Default For Real This Time :)

I've lost weight a few times. It's always the same story, a bad break up and the weight just falls off. This happened in July of 2012... I went from 230 to 180. There was no effort, no working out, no nothing but eating less because of emotional trauma.

I met my future husband at 210 and kept losing while we dated. I moved in March of 2013 and he moved in in April. He is a BIG guy and loves to cook. Huge breakfasts on the weekends and huge dinners every night. Snacks and eating out and blah blah blah, you know how it goes.

Now, the important part of this story is I am so happy I am happy and my life is amazing and I'm loved the way every woman should get the chance to be loved

Unfortunately, I got fat again. I hit 250 pounds. I feel like crap, y'all and now I have to do this the hard way and I have to lose MORE. Darn it!!!

So, here I am Ready to do this! Ready to be an even better me

This picture was taken Friday at my 39th birthday party. I kept asking the lady taking pictures to get on a stool and get an angle over me so I didn't look as fat, lol. I was ridiculous. Yeah, I'm fat and I look fat... I can do something about it or hide from unflattering photos for the rest of my life, lol.

I'm new here too so I don't think I can be part of the welcoming committee, but I wanted to say happy belated birthday, and that I totally get the picture angles. I put my family through **** posing for Christmas pictures last year. It'll be awesome when you got less to worry about next birthday party.

Also, are those tats I see or am I imagining things?

I absolutely love this site! I've been getting great advice and support from all these lovely ladies and gentlemen since may of this year. I've decided I've had enough!! With fat. I'm not getting any younger(43) just wider. So. I've had success and I'm just about half way there. I too started out at 245-250 and felt miserable. Eventhough I still have some ways to go, I fell tons better. I ask questions, get support, run 2 miles 4 times a week now and feel so much better for it. I wish you success and hope you meet your goals. We are all behind you and offer support and cyber hugs when you need them
Oh, and happy belated birthday!

Ps: I too started my weight loss journey a day after my bday in May. Cause a girls gotta have her birthday cake
