I have failed over and over again. I let life take away from me eating healthy and exercising. I'm around 350 lbs (not 100 percent sure because my scale is broken) i have a long way to go and I always let that feeling get me down. I'm turning 30 next year and I can feel my body is hurting from me being so overweight. I work 50 hours a week as a restaurant manager( I get free food so it's a struggle to pack budget wise but I'm going to focus on this) i have 3 children who take up a lot of my time and makes it harder to go to gym or anywhere really. My husband is overweight as well and I feel like we get in each others way and bring each other down when we try to loose weight together( this time I'm going to focus on me and since I do the grocery shopping he should start to slim and should inspire him)
So there is all my excuses, I wanted to get them out of the way because darn it I'm going to do it this time no matter how long it takes!!
I need people that will encourage me with small victories and to give me advice, not tear me down when I don't eat right or make a bad choice. I'm not perfect and I know I won't be with this life change. I don't want judgement I want encouragement!
Thank you for listening
