Hi guys! I'm Jamie, 20 years old, and I weigh 266lbs. This is the first time that I have voluntarily shared my weight. I remember avoiding giving out this information like it was a huge secret. I knew that everyone could tell that I was overweight, but I still hated that number. To be honest I still hate this number; however, I am learning to be okay with it. Last week I weighed 271lbs - so I've already made a 5lb difference. I'm excited for this journey and am looking to share it with others. I log daily, write in my blog, and will definitely be an active motivator :) add me!
