Just saying hello to everyone. My name is Ciaran.

Except for a short time in my life (military) I've been overweight, and a smoker.

About 12 months ago I found out I had diabetes. Denial ensued as per usual.

Fortunately I've been able to get my head out of my rear and quit smoking 3 months ago. For about a month I've been messing with my food and now I'm going all in on eating right and exercise.

At my largest I made it to 310. I've been hovering between 285 and 290 for awhile now.

End goal is unknown as of yet but my current goals are simply get in the habit of daily exercise and maintain a proper meal plan.

I was afraid to do this for a long. Time, not sure why but I was MORE afraid to quit smoking. I don't even feel like a smoker anymore. I can't wait until I don't feel fat, out of shape and constantly sweaty anymore.

;TLDR

Hi everyone. I'm tired of being fat, sweaty, unhealthy and embarrassed. I already qiit smoking. Now I'm quitting the rest of this nonsense.

:)
