Hey everyone, I have been overweight my whole life. I grew up playing sports (soccer, softball, bowling, dance,basketball, backyard football,etc) and always being outside and active all day long during the summer, but it was my eating habits that caused this. growing up I was picked on for as long as I can remember by my classmates, but going thru middle school and most of high school was what did the real damage. In the last 2 weeks I have cleansed my body of any soda, eating healthy and clean. I joined a gym and I love it, really missed being so active. I am trying to lose about 150lbs all together and I have 3 yrs to do so, because on the day of my high school graduation I promised myself by my 10yr class reunion I would be in the best shape of my life and show them that they were wrong about me, especially since those who made fun of me are now putting on the weight.

I go to the gym 4-6 times a week for atleast an hr, Im doing cardio and lifting weights because I want to lose, build and tone all at once. I am following the iifym (if it fits your macros) nutrition plan with the help of my amazing aunt who is my personal trainer and nutritionist. I've been doing this for almost 3 weeks and have almost lost 10lbs already.

So if anyone would like to add me, please do and help me thru this journey and I will help you and be active in the mfp community.
