Hello, anyone who's interested: My name is Diana. I am currently living in a small city named Katy near Houston, Texas. I used to live in Portland, Oregon, but we moved just last summer. I've always struggled with my weight, being significantly larger than my peers and friends. I don't like it. It feels horrible. A year or so ago, I went on a very unhealthy and drastic diet. I was starving myself, only eating a small bag of cheerios at school just to prevent my friends from saying anything about not eating. It really took a toll on my body, I was hungry all the time, I lacked vitamins, and I got sick. My stomach disagreed with my diet, and I had to get CAT scans, X-Rays, and an ultrasound because the doctors didn't know what was wrong with me. I am 15. I realize now that I did an unforgiving thing to my body, and I am most definitely regretful. To this day, no one knows what happened with my body, except for me.
In those three months, I lost 50 pounds. I have gained thirty of those. Now I am back to over 200 pounds, and very unhappy. But this time, I'm not willing to sacrifice my health. By going on this website, recording what I eat and tracking my weight, and going on challenges I know I will lose even more weight. Except this time, I'm doing it the healhty way. Please feel free to give me encouragement or just helpful tips because God knows I need it.
