Hi everyone. I am a 23 year old female. 5'3 270lbs. I wear 22/20 in pants and 2X in tops. My goal is 180lbs. I have no energy and I'm tired even when I sleep 8-10 hours at night. I was 285lbs in 2011. I got down to 240lbs and looked great. I completely cut soda out of my diet for a few months and late night snacking. After August 2012 I stopped going to the gym and started back with my old ways, no I am at 270lbs and ready to make permanent changes. Looking for any support or motivation I can get.
