ohhhh. Fair enough
In that case, I'm okay to post copy and paste my blog posts directly into this thread then I guess. So, here's my first post.
Hi there!
My name is James, I work in a cafe and I’m from Lincoln in the UK. I’m 20 years old and I’m quite a big lad. I’m not sure how heavy I am but I’m a 42 inch waist and a 44 inch chest.
I know it’s not healthy to be this big. It certainly doesn’t make me happy. It doesn’t make me sad either though. I don’t look at my body and think “What a disgusting mess” and raid the freezer looking for tubs of ice cream. Infact, I’m proud of my body and I always will be no-matter what I look like.
However, the whole point of this is that I’m going to lose weight. ‘But you said you’re proud of your body!’… Well I am, but sometimes, you have to think about your health and unfortunately, if my health doesn’t get better, I will live a short life.
I don’t own much money but I’m not poor either. I’m not a fitness freak and I don’t just sit on my bum. I’m not a healthy or unhealthy eater. I like to drink but I drink all the time. I’m quite a normal person in the way that I’m not a slob that sits around the house all day watching re-runs of Jeremy Kyle and I’m not Mr. Perfect (and I never will be) who has the best job in the world, goes to the gym every day and drinks protein shakes. I’m just me.
I will be starting with my weight loss on Monday 17th January and trying to blog every day. I will need support though. I’ve not told my family or friends because I’d like them to notice for themselves. So as much support as possible would be great.
But before then, I’ll be posting a few posts about how I’m going to start and that kinda thing. My aim is to show people that anybody can do this… However, I hope I don’t let anybody down.
Thanks so much for reading and please keep following my blog.
James
