It's time to change my lifestyle

I eat because I hate myself and I hate myself because I eat. Ever since I started college, my weight has always been a struggle. My entire family was overweight and all have them have joined WW and lost all this weight and I am the last of the family to be extremely overweight.  I have tried multiple diets and taken off the weight only to gain the weight back and then some.. I make excuses for why I have gained the weight, whether it be stress from losing my job, or stress from the kids, stress from school, too many BBQ's over the summer.. the reality is, I can always make up another excuse.. honestly, who am I really fooling.  So, I have decided to put it out there, my weight, my fat butt, everything.. For anyone who struggles with their weight and needs any type of support, I am here. Feel free to follow my story.

Today is Saturday, November 27th. My husband took the following pics of me. Now, I am wearing black which is supposed to be the most flattering.. so basically, these pics compliment my frame LOL.

So, I am 222 pounds, the heaviest I have ever been when not pregnant.

Today, I went to the gym. I watched all my friends eat McDonalds, while I came home and had some fruit.

So, this it.. the beginning of my journey. Feel free to follow my road to becoming the Biggest Loser!

  2. Julie,
    I am soooooo proud of you. We have talked many times about this and YOU CAN DO IT! You can do anything you put your mind to. You can always talk to me about why you think you hate yourself and I will gladly help you because I have been through that myself. And, diets don't work as you know, its a change in what you eat which comes from your thinking. I am here to help you in any way that you will let me!!! Love ya!! Stace
