When I first met my fiance I weighed 140 lbs at 4’11 which is pretty healthy for my height. We have been together for almost 10 years, I am now 27, 240 lbs and still 4’11. My weight has never been a problem for me, I just honestly never cared. I have been blessed with a man who loves me no matter what and friends who don’t judge. I have always felt that no matter my size I’m a really good person so it shouldn’t matter and it never did. But just recently I’m starting to feel really unhealthy,chest pains, shortness of breathe and parts of my body going numb for no reason. So the way I see it I either lose weight or well I’m gonna be in trouble. With that said I need to lose 100 lbs to reach my appropriate weight for my height.
I know this is gonna take a really long time, which is a depressing thought, but I’m gonna do it!!! Wish me luck!

I’m a mother of a child with Cerebral Palsy. I have stayed at home for 5 years taking care of my son and living of our government checks. By doing this not only have I gained weight but I’ve gotten really lazy. My son starts kindergarten next year and I’m thinking it’s time for me to get a job, and support my family. Problem is it’s easier said then done. Every morning my goal is to go find a job by end of the night I’m kicking myself for not even leaving the house, it’s always one excuse after another. My most common excuse: What if my son needs me? guess I’m just scared to face the outside world, which is pretty pathetic at the age of 26. So this year one way or another I WILL FIND A JOB AND KEEP IT FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS. I know that’s not a long time to hold a job but baby steps.
