I have always been heavy, my whole life. I remember my mom having a hard time finding clothes for me as a kid, and often having to buy me adult sizes. I hated being 'fat'. I felt huge when I graduated high school - but I would love to weigh now what I did then. It has been 19 years and two kids since high school and the pounds have gone up and up. I have 'dieted' off and on my whole life. But I'm a stress-eater and have always ended up falling off the wagon. But no more . . . I am determined to lose the weight and become healthier. I have been going to the gym several times a week and have changed my way of eating. I don't consider it a diet, I consider it a lifestyle change. Almost every morning my brain starts telling me all the reasons I shouldn't/can't go to the gym, and every morning I have to talk myself into going, but I love it once I get there. I started my lifestyle change on Easter Sunday and I'm loving it! My gym does weigh and measures once a month, and my results are amazing so far. In 8 weeks I have lost 18.5 inches, and 15.5 pounds! I'm settling into a routine and finally happy with myself and what I'm doing. This isn't going to be a quick and easy transformation, it's going to be hard work and take the rest of my life, but bring it on I'm ready! :) I have always been heavy, my whole life.
