My 400 pound life

Hi all! So I am a week into using MyFitnessPal and boy has it changed my life!

I have always been big, obese, large and in charge. My young age always seemed to get me through everything! Now hitting the age of 28 my joints are crackling, ankles swelling, motivation decreasing. I am a huge theme park loving, theater obsessed, computer nerd. I'm tired of not being able to fit into roller coasters or squeeze into theater seats. My weight is affecting things I love to do.

My first weigh in I have lost 12 pounds. I'm feeling better cutting down to drinking only water (Soda is liquid death!) and playing this entertaining game of life on MyFitnessPal. Life is looking up for me.

I'm here if anyone wants motivation or if anyone wants to motivate me! :-D
