Hi everyone, Im Erica 24 years old, 4'11 and weight about 155 lbs. I thought that it would be nice for me to take a hot bubble bath to relax before I went and snuggled up to my fiance in bed. Boy, was I wrong. I lay down in the tun and look down and what do I see...FAT... Immediately I started crying. Before taking my bath I had consumed about 5 handfulls of Wheat Things topped with shredded cheese...2 root bear sodas and who know's what else. I cannot live my life like this anymore. I can't remember the last time I've alowed anyone to take a picture of me from the chest down, or when I sat through a whole movie without eating potatoe chips, cheese or some type of unhealthy snack. My cloths look horrible on me, every thing feels super tight, I have to buy new bra's again, and I just can't live like this anymore. I wont. So Today/Tonight I vowel to myself to make change... hopefuly I'll get some support from you guys! Eventually I'll be up to 200lbs if I don't do someting now! Im only 24 I need to get healthy before its too late!

Thanks!

Erica
 
Hi Erica! I'm about your age and I just had a wake up call, too. I wish I had my wake up call at 155 lbs instead of the weight I'm at (180)! Still, I know it can seem daunting at any weight when you realize how much work it takes to get to your goal. You sound so motivated and determined; it's very inspiring to me!

I think you're going to do great. I have the same problem with snacking while watching tv/movies, so I've been trying to get up to do stretches and stuff while I watch to distract myself from mindless snacking. Good luck!
 
I know exactly where you are coming from. I always loved having warm baths but now I am simply too embarrased to see myself naked!!It is better to start looking after yourself sooner rather than later. I am new to this site I have already made some great friends who I see as a fantastic encouragement towards a slimmer, heathier me!! I have no doubt you too will find the support you need on this forum!!
 
Hey Erica welcome to the forum. We're always here if you need support, and if we all support each other and stay strong we cant lose!

PS what are you scared of? You already took the scariest step................the first one! ;)
