Hmm.. well I bought some new scales yesterday as my old ones wouldn't register my weight. So today I found out I weighed 378 pounds. :embarassed: There are lots of reasons for getting to this size, which I wont go into, but I am pretty mad at myself for not taking control sooner. I am a little scared to lose wieght as it's been me for so long, but at the same time I am scared if I dont I wont gt to see my kids married.

Little down, but determined.

    Did the same here, had to buy commercial scales so I could weigh myself. But you are taking a great first step, and the key to successes is changing your habits a little at a time.
