I have fought weight on and off for years. It seems my closet is like a women's department store with all sizes, ranging in sizes from a 7-22 plus size. And while that didn't bother me too much, seeing myself in photos did. That along with being sick and tired of being sick and tired was my turning point!

I made excuses for my weight for years, from I'm an emotional eater, I don't care what I look like, etc. I could come up with any excuse under the sun and then some. When I hit my highest at 215 I weighed more than my husband and that's when reality hit me! It was time to get out of the pity party and into the gym. I still have a long way to go but I'm learning along the way. I have starting reading labels, learning portion control, being consistant about working out, and I feel better from eating right and excercise.
Fatsecret has helped me to know I'm not on this journey alone. The great support, recipes, and knowing I'm accountable really works.
