Have to make a change NOW!

Hey guys,

I'm new to MFP, I have finally decide to make a change in my fitness level and eating habits. I'm afraid if i dont, other than hating myself, I will develop the medical problems that come with obesity (HTN, DM, etc.). Thank God I haven't yet.

I'm 26, 5'9" 213lbs. I was 180 about a year ago (still overweight), but since then, i graduated college, and started my career as an RN....and I piled on the lbs...STRESS. I hate looking at myself in the mirror, I am ashamed of my body, I can't even let my husband see me (naked) anymore...I feel like a stuffed sausage, about to pop.


It has taken a while to muster the motivation to even start, but I started yesterday with p90x day 1 (even though i cried most of the way through it) and making better eating choices. I believe I can do this and get fit. I'm glad to be on MFP so we can do this together.

Good luck. If you stick with it and do it right, MFP will help you lose weight.
