My name is angel I'm from Watsonville CA and I'm 28 years old I have been overweight my entire life and just recently (past July 2014) to be exact I decided to turn my life around I just got tired of always being made fun of and got tired of people always making me feel like i was a monster during my middle school and throughout high school i weighed easy 300+lbs and after I weighed even more!!! I started to gain even more after I got this job as a security guard, I must of probably weight over 400 lbs but after getting a job as a mechanic and being a little more active at work I shed a couple pounds and dropped to 355 in about 4 years just from work alone but it wasnt until last year when i really decided to dedicate myself to losing weight after years of unhealthy eating and bad habits i quit soda and made water my new best friend I started to workout, at first it was super hard but after first couple weeks I started to get used to it and little but little I started to make my workouts a bit harder and my diet stricter. In the beginning of July 2014 I was 355 and today I weight in at 285, my goal is to reach 250 and after I'll shoot for 220 I still got a long way to go and there's been many ups and down but I know I will get there!!
