in Introduce Yourself
Hello,
My name is Marissa. I am going to make this as quick as possible. I am overweight. It is affecting my health negatively. Which scares me. My energy drains everyday and my physical pain grows. I am eighteen and should not be feeling this way all of the time. I do want to better myself. And I have started this fitness journey over and over again like a broken record. I need some people to give me that kick and be there to remind me that I can do this.

Thank You,
M

    HI HUN, you can do it hun, my weight caused major health problems after having my son, I had a bad back, some days I could hardly walk, then my tibia broke due to a tumor growing in my shin,my weight didn't help it, also diagnosed with pcos, enlarged heart and borderline diabeaties .

    The first time I tired to exercise I could barely do 5mins of a fitness vid, I couldn't even walk to the shop next door. that was in 2011, I can now do 60mins of zumba and walk to the next village and back now. my bad back has gone, my leg isn't a 100per cent but its much better, my pcos is under control and my heart is back to normal and now no longer under risk from diabeaties .

    I started off at 219lbs today I weighed my self and im 156.8lbs. It does take time but it is worth it. feel free to message me, just start off slowly,try to do at least 30mins exercise 3 times a week, theres walking with leslie sansone on you tube ,its very gentle and shes very motivating . I also eat of a smaller plate,then imnot tempted to over fill. x
