Hello

cchardt

My name is Charity and I have been here since the 4th of January. I started out at 235 but before I got here I weighed 270. I have my good days and my bad days but I am getting better at it every day. I lost weight several years ago but gained it all back because I did not care about myself. But after my dads passing last year of heart issues I decided I needed to be here for my kids. I need to be healthy. I don't care if I am at the weight for my height, I just want to be healthy for my family.

I have about 85 pounds to lose and I know it will take time. I look forward to my journey with you all.

Charity,

Just know you are victorious. You are an over-comer that has been fearfully and wonderfully made by the Creator. You are blessed and highly favored. Jesus is your Savoir, and I Am is your God.

Rest in the hand of the Almighty - your Defender,, your Deliverer, your Help, your Friend. He walks with us through every situation. Take it one day at a time. I am walking this journey with you sis. We BOTH shall lift up our eyes unto the hills- it is where our help.comes. Our help comes from the Lord.

Be encouraged.

Welcome!! I know EXACTLY where you've been, I've lost 80+ 3 times now. After about a year of not caring and being extremely depressed about it, I've picked myself up, brushed my butt off and get serious.

Thank you. I know I can do it. I think before I was not doing it for myself but that has changed. I look forward to this journey!

Hi I too was 220 June 2010 and am now hovering between 182-186...I've been watching my portions and staying away from the foods I'm allergic (for the most part) my biggest challenge is my corn allergy! It's in everything so I'm reading labels constantly and it takes me about an hour or two just to do my grocery shopping.
