ITS A CONSTANT YEARNING...

Hi, I'm Anita and I am 38 years old. The battle of becoming healthy has plagued me for many years. As I near hitting another decade in my life, the thought of finally doing this has been weighing heavy. I am in constant thought about how unhappy this weight makes me, yet I sabotage efforts finding comfort in food. This has to stop! All I have proven to myself is that I keep getting bigger and bigger, now hitting my all time highest weight of 250lbs. I cry in private, but I also eat in private. I want to change so badly! I have accomplished many other successes in my life, and feel blessed that other goals have been attainable. This is my biggest mountain to climb, and I'm ready to take steps. I would love to meet some friends so we can cheer each other on. I am not sure if this app allows finding friends locally too for possible in person support. I could always use a workout buddy. So, here's to getting fit as I get ready for those not to far off forty years...let's be friends!
