Hello,
I am just introducing myself as I am new to this forum.
My name is Jessica, I live in the fabulous Pacific Northwest, Oregon to be exact. I have four girls, ages 10, 8, 5 & 3, and am very happily married. My life is actually great - except for my weight.
I was thin as a child and had the perfect body through high school. After I got married - almost 13 years ago- I slowly started putting on weight. I never gained extra weight during my pregnancies, but after each baby was born I managed to pack it on.
I have been struggling with my weight for many years and I am now creaping up with high blood pressure.
I am 35 years old and am too damn young to have health issues. I currently weigh 258, which is the most I have ever weighed! I am 5' 10", so my goal wieght is 170-175.
I have lost weight in the past, but it always manages to come back, and it brings friends along with it. I used to be able to get motivated and stay on track for a while, but now I lack the motivation to even start. I need some help and I am hoping to find some here.
I konw I'm a bit long-winded, but that's my story in a nutshell.
I'm looking forward to reading and learning from people who share the same issue.
