Ok - butt spankin new to the forum. I'm gonna go ahead and jump in face first! I start my new life tomorrow and I want to be prepared to have to document it so that i'll stay focused. I've got my mind made up! I'm so tired of being fat! I'm so tired of buying fat clothes... nothing is ever cute!! & I'm oddly shaped, so I have to buy baggy pants! My bottom half is MUCH bigger than my top half! I only have A boobs too!!! I think I'm the fattest person I know with NO boobs!!!!!! It's depressing! Anyway, I stole this survey off of Alleria's journal - I love questionnaires! (and exclamation points)

Well, we're planning on going to hawaii this summer and I definitely aint going if im fat, what a life ruiner!!!!!!!
6. What obstacles could get between you and your weight loss goals?
The 5 McDonalds that I pass on my way to and from work........ that's about it.
7. Why do you think that you now have a weight problem?

11. What, if anything, has not worked for you in the past in helping you to lose weight? Why do you think it did not work?
Me - being too dependent on food for support. It didn't work obviously because I'm lazy and didn't work it off.

I plan on it.
13. Do you cook at home often? If so, what do you cook?

Nothing right now - I do have a gym membership to a 24 hour gym that I drive RIGHT past on my way home from work. I'm using it starting tomorrow!
28. Where do you go for exercise? A local public gym? School/work gym? Home?
Public Gym - 24 hour fitness
29. What, if anything, are your three favorite types of exercise?
Oh, I don't have a favorite right now - do you know how hard it is to even walk in the door? Lol. Hopefully I'll lose most of my weight and let my gym membership expire and then I can join a gym that offers classes - dance classes, spin classes etc. Cause I'd like to take dance classes!!
30. What is your daily/weekly/monthly/yearly motivation to move towards your goals?
Well - once I reach my ultimate goal I'm going to reward myself with a TT & Boobies!! Everyone gets mad when I tell them that but hey I've never had boobs and I'm fat - so there's no way I'm ever gonna get them unless I buy them! & If it makes ME happy then why do you even care!!
31. Do you have rewards for certain goals?
I wasn't even thinking about 'short term' goals because I might get too excited with that one specific goal and then get lax about working out/eating properly. I guess for every 3 dress sizes lost I could buy new clothes!!?! Clothing motivates me!
=====================================================
So there is that - I need to go out and buy some food and a scale. I'm going to edit this later tonight - possibly tomorrow with my current weight & inches to keep track of things throughout my experience. I might even snap some photos but of course I'm not going to post them until I lose some weight - how embarrassing!! I'm so excited for my new journey - I hope I don't get discouraged again.....

you decide...
I think getting started is the hardest part. I have been trying to lose weight for so long, and every time I found a new diet/program it seemed like motivating myself to really get into a routine was the hardest part. Just make the gym a daily thing so there is no option of whether or not you can go. That's what helped me the most anyway. Good luck!!
