Why Am I Here?
After googling this page, I asked myself "how could I let myself get to this point?" I never thought I would baloon to the weight I am now because I have always teetered at around 130-140 lbs.
I was always known as 'the chubby kid', but I was never fat. It wasn't until I turned 16 that the pounds started creeping up on me. I've always loved food, but I was very active too. Everyday I would walk almost a mile and a half to school regardless of the weather conditions.
I'm a mother now, but countless days of stuffing my face late at night have caused me to balloon to 215 lbs. I only own 2 pairs of pants that properly fit me...my other pants have broken zippers or holes in them. I refuse to just 'give in' and go to plus size stores to buy a new wardrobe. I wish I could just be skinny again! I used to be proud of how I looked, now everytime I look in a mirror I cringe.
So I need to change...hopefully this time I won't give up.
