When I was pregnant with twins, I gained 60 pounds. After their birth, I lost 30 practically immediately. The lowest I’ve weighed since their birth has been 218 pounds. At this point, I weight 243 pounds. I need to lose weight because my body is really suffering. I have trouble going up and down the stairs in my townhouse. I have joint pain in my knees and ankles, I get tired very easily, I never have any energy, and I sleep very poorly. I would also like to be able to shop at the stores I used to shop at, and not have to be forced to wear the ugly tents they sell passing them off as plus-size clothing. I’ve never been this big in my life, and it has greatly effected my self-esteem and confidence. Every Sunday or Monday, I’m constantly starting over, vowing to eat better and exercise more, but by Tuesday, I’m back to my old habits. I need to make it stick once and for all.
