Started a couple of days ago.

Hi, my name is Tomi, don't ask what's it short for, my parents are crazy, you can just call me Tomi (like Tommy).

I am a girl (with a guys name, I know), I'm going to be 25 in about 3 months and I would like to change my habits.

I am (as of today) 209.8 lbs, BMI of 37.2 (Obese)

My birthday is October 2nd, I would like a BMI of 29.9 (Overweight), which means I need to be at 169 (-40.8 lbs difference)

I don't know if it is possible since that's over 10lbs a month, but I like to set high goals because it motivates me more (even if I don't reach those goals, I'll still be proud of how far I've gotten.

I work as a waitress in a diner. Its nice because I get a 6-8 hour workout everyday

I just moved to a new city, I don't know many people so I'm looking for a support system. I'm on livejournal (username: AthenaWho)

I take diet pills (I know, start throwing stones) I take Zantrex-3, before you start preaching the horrors of these particular pills they work great for me. I don't have any side effects and they give me loads of energy for work. I know they aren't for everyone but I need a boost for my weight loss (I have a very low metabolism, partly because of an eating disorder I had a couple of years ago).

Anyway, if you have some kind words of encouragement and would love some motivation in return, please feel free to add me as a friend on livejournal or message me on here. I could always use understanding friends.
