Well i decided it's time to buckle down and get serious about this weight loss thing especially if i want to live a long healthy life. I am 24 years old, recently married and have a 6 year old daughter. I've been overweight most of my life and always try to overlook it. I'm a "healthy skinny woman locked in an unhealthy obese body", if you can understand that statement. I guess what i am trying to say is i'm in denial, i hate the thought of being a "big" girl. No matter how bad i want to think i'm not that big..... i am that big! Recently my mom was diagnosed with diabetes, it runs deep in my family, like my grandmother, aunts, grandfather, cousins and well now my mom! It's a huge eye opener for me because i don't want to get to that point when i know i can do something about it NOW. I am 5'4 222lbs. and my long term goal is to get to 137lbs. by Sept. 1, 2007 and i'm looking to this forum for the support and motivation . I hope at the same time i can give the support and motivation back to some of you!
