I guess theres only one way to start this. So, here goes nothing.

Im 29. Im 377 pounds and im this close to just giving up completely. I feel ive done everything...tried so much crap and nothing has helped. I need motivation. I need to know that i can do this. Because i want to live. I want love i want health...i want freedom from the thoughts that fill my head. I dont even know any of you, but i need you. Am i reaching for nothing? Or can i really do this?

    You absolutely can. Distract your self... from thinking about food. I read a beautiful story about a women who lost three digit weight on fast food. She was 300 and something her self. I know it seems impossible, but everyday you wake up your that much closer. Think about it day by day.

    The book is called
    Veggies Not Included: Tales of My Triple Digit Weight Loss from the Fast Food Lane
