Ready To Let Go!

Sunday my dad hugged me, rubbed my belly and said, "You are my Babygirl and I love you, but you've got to do something about this."

I am a 33 year old, soon to be divorced, mother of one and full time grad student. I've been beating myself up because over the course of four years, I've gained over 100 lbs. I was already a plus size woman but it has gotten ridiculous! It wasn't until this summer that I really took a look at what I have become. I don't like it. I can't fit anything but my maxi dresses. I feel pretty when I'm all dressed up, but when I get home or pass a mirror, I feel like a blob! I actually feel heavy. I tried working out, slim-fast and other stuff but I always got discouraged thinking that I let it go too far and its too late.

Okay, now the pity party is over, I'm ready to move on this! I started working out yesterday and my plan is to workout for one hour daily, stop eating after 7pm, eat healthier portions and snacks. I don't work so I have put myself on a schedule during the day so that I can get more accomplished instead of just staying in the bed most of the day. I'm pumped! So what I need is to associate myself with people who understand my fight! So feel free to add me! I could use the motivation.

RIght now I am 5'4 and I weigh 308 lbs (way too big for my height) My friends say that I don't look it but I definitely feel it and I'm READY TO LET GO!
