My name is Brittany, I'm 23 years old and I weight 350\360 pounds. I'm 5'8 and honestly no one can tell how big I really am. I come from a family of chubbsters and we all happen to wear our pounds really well. However recently as I've gained the last 50 pounds I've begun to really FEEL the weight and that FEELING has me here.
Like I wrote on my blog today... I feel like it's holding me back from the jobs I want, from the things that I want to do, from the fun I want to have. So I'm making a push to lose anywhere from 160-200 (depending on how it looks on my frame) since I am a little broad and have about a 13 inch waist to hip difference(even when I was smaller).
I've been a member of a dozen different fat acceptance groups and forums online and I joined you guys because I need to be surrounded by people who GET what I'm doing and why I'm doing it. I've got a fabulously supportive friend (who I'd like to be my bf lol ) and I support him in his journey too. I've been on diets and fads and pills and even thought about surgery but I want it to stick this time. So I'm doing it for myself and treating it like my job.
Hope to do this journey with you all.
