Hey Everyone!
Like most people, I have been poking around this site for awhile, checking out people's progress and getting advice for weight loss.
My short story:
The first 19 years of my life, I was thin, too thin to the point where people thought I was anorexic. Boy were they wrong... I was very athletic and played accelerated softball and played on my high school team. I decided not to try for college and immediately started working. Well, as you can guess, my hard workouts stopped and I continued to eat like crazy and gained 45 pounds within the first 6 months of graduating and have been fighting it for the past 4 1/2 years. I didn't really care or notice that I gained weight because I was still playing softball on leagues and they were big girls too. Nobody in my family said anything because they were all overweight themselves. AND, my husband now (we dated since we were 16) never noticed because he was gaining weight right along with me.
Fast forward to 2008:
I finally decided to get serious, workout and watch my eating habits. I started this FINAL journey in Oct. 2008 and haven't looked back since. I lost 15 pounds in the first 3 months and STALLED for 7-8 weeks until only now, have I finally started losing again.
I'm going to start a diary on this site in hopes that it keeps me accountable still and continue to get inspiration from everyone on here! Good Luck to everyone!!
