I started out my life being extremely underweight to the point of parental and medical concern. Being 7 years old and only weighing 40 some odd pounds I needed to go everywhere in a car seat, legally, in the state we lived in at the time.
My last year of high school shortly after my father passed away I ended up hitting my highest weight, which I am at to this day. I always promised myself that I would NEVER allow myself to hit 200 pounds and being 8 pounds away from that point really scares me. I have a lot of members in my family that are morbidly obese, my father was one of them... I just don't want to live like that.
I have been on and off about how badly I want to loose weight but realizing that I am not heading in the right direction has made up my mind for me. My main reason other than avoiding 200 pounds, is the fact that I really wonder what I would look like being as I am, an adult female, but at a healthy weight. I have not had the pleasure of experiencing that and I intend to do so before I am 25....hopefully sooner. :)
