A Reason to Get in Shape

Greetings!

My name is Anna and I have always been at an uncomfortable 200lbs, give or take that 10-15 over a few years. I recently went to the doctor and I run the risk of diabetes. Not the end of the world, but definitely an eye opener. It also frightened me that my weight contributes to my lack of infertility. Yikes!

In attempt to avoid this issues, and others that may arise, I have decided it is time to cut the crap and lose the weight. I am loosing it not to feel better in vanity, but for my health. I used to exercise a lot and now... Well, if you count walking during work...

Anyway. I think it is wise to lose weight for your comfort and more importantly for your health. Sometimes we forget that we are only human and our bodies can only handle so much. Eventually our bodies will run out of energy and shut down. How we live our lives is a testament of how much we care about our lives and how long we live.

So, here is to good health and a long life!

Anna
