Well I decided to start this Diary to let others get to know me, and for myself to look back, and see what I have been trying to do for many years.
My name is Vanessa. I am 19 years old, and live in Florida. I have been over weight ever since I can remember. I currently weight 221 pounds, and am about 5 foot. I have probably tried every weight loss idea known to man. First there was Atkins, LA weight loss, Weight Watchers, nutritionist, and lastly the lap ban. I was supposed to get the lap ban a year ago, but I felt that I didn't need it, and that I could do it myself. I was one week away, and decided not to do it. I fought with my parents telling them I could do it on my own, and they finally gave in. Now it's a year later. I have just begun weight managment. I have been doing great. This is the longest I have been on a weight loss program without wanting to break it. I have lost 4 pounds in 5 days, and couldn't feel better. I know it's going to be a tough tough thing to do, but I feel that i'm mentally prepared to do this. I am 19 years old, and haven't been able to live my life the way I have wanted it to. I avoid going to theme parks because I'm afraid of going through the turnstiles, I recently went to new york, and wasn't able to walk that long because I would get tired easily, and I would LOVE just to go into a store and pick something out and just have it fit.
I intend to write in this once a week possibly every tuesday because that is when i get weighed in. Please feel free to comment and say anything. I would love to get to know more people in this community.
