Trying something different

Hello. In December 2010, I weighed about 430 lbs. I had tried so many different ways to loose wait, but just ended up feeling like a yoyo. Of course, I knew exactly what I needed to do to loose the weight, but when your that big depression tends to set in pretty quickly whenever you suffer even the smallest set back.

I am not sure how I motiviated myself to keep going, being tired of feeling lonely may have had a large part of it, but I am now 310 lbs. The bad part, for me anyway, is that I have been bouncing back and forth between 304 and 310 since Christmas.

That brings us to why I am here. I am actually not much of a talker, but I like to listen to other people's success stories and sometimes try to find some motivation from other's experiences. I am also hoping this site will help me be more diligent about tracking my exercise progress and food intact, which will hopefully keep me on track.

Well, thats me. Thanks for listening. :)
