Hi there,
I am just beginning! I have never been so ashamed of what i have become, I met my husband when I was 17 and weighed around 135 at 5'5, I was beautiful, I felt good about myself. I am now 24 years old and weigh 225! I can't believe what I look like, it's like a bad dream. I want to be thin again, I realized that to feel my best i have to look my best! No more junk food, large portions and being lazy, I am going to do it! I am so excited to track my progress and see the after pictures eventually! I hope that I can do it, I have failed so many times.

    You sound so ready and determined for this! YOU CAN DO IT! Especially with that attitude! Take it one day at a time though because it is a looooong journey!

    Oh and remember to take your before pictures sometime soon - you will soon be seeing changes in your body ;-)

    Good Luck xxxx
