Hello everyone, I just re-started using this site yesterday. Last time I quit because I felt that I lacked a social network to keep me motivated. I REALLY want to lose the extra weight I have been carrying around, I'm terrified of developing serious health issues because I am overweight. After working in a nursing home, I have now see first hand what a poor diet and lack of exercise can do to someone in the long run...
Another factor is that my family has always put me down for being overweight (even when I wasn't, which lead to some eating disorders). I currently live 400 miles away from my family but I am going to see them again in December, so I would like to surprise them by being healthy. That way they'll have positive things to say :)

I am afraid that I am going to struggle the most when I start working full time and going to class full time over the next few weeks. I am going to try to do the p90x lean exercises and I am playing around with various diet ideas.

Will you please be my friend? :D
