Hey everyone. Like it says i'm a newbie on here... I have been struggling with my weight my whole life. I am 22 years old, 5'9 and over 350 pounds. (Gosh it hurts to admit that). I have never been a skinny person and as I have grown, I have just continuely put on weight.

Now, looking at myself in the mirror - I can barely see myself under all this weight. And I hate it. I dont feel like myself and because of all of the weight I dont act like myself. I'm always putting myself down and that stops me from doing a lot of things in life. I just graduated from college and because of all the extra weight I feel like I missed out on a lot of exciting times I could have had while I was in school. I don't like the way I look and I feel like wherever I go, everyone is looking at me and focusing in all my flaws.

I just want to be able to look at myself and love myself like I use to do.

I dont really have any buddies to exercise with and being alone while trying work-out has always made me feel weird. But I have realized that I need to get over that and start taking steps to a healthier life.

I just really need support right now because I am scared. Very scared. And I cant believe I have actually gotten myself to finally spit it out and admit it. I would really love and appreciate some help and support...
 
Hello and welcome.

Hello, I think you have found the right locaton to get informed and motivated to change your life. I was also scared.....scared of getting diabetes or having a heart attack, and was always selfconscious of the way I looked. Just know if you want it there is a better way. Good luck.
 
thanks for the support pheonix. its much needed and appreciated.

so today started getting up and doing more just trying to make myself get started. i realize how low my energy and strength is and its pretty scary and disappointing... does anyone know of any type of work i could do that would help me get started into a workout routine... or if its better to just find one and jump right into it...

im just not sure what to do...
