Ok so I have been on the weight roller coaster for about all of my 27 years. I was thin and then fat. At my heaviest I weighed well over 400 lbs. I am 5'3 and seriously need to lose the weight for my health. I am posting a pic of myself taking a few weeks ago at the Washington Incline in Pittsburgh, this pic will be my profile pic as I do not know how to add them here. I hope I am able to work off the weight. I have started tracking my food (something I had never done) and have been working out (I am so sore). Wish me luck.

    For me in losing the weight I have it has been a slow journey but I found a better rounded loss with swimming laps.
