About me:
I've always been overweight. However, I never went over 250lbs. I still wasn't happy with myself at that point and I'm even more angry at myself now for being 307lbs. I keep thinking to myself, "why did I ever let it get out of hand?" I really don't have an answer for that question. My best guess is because I think I may have been depressed my entire life. I can't blame it on that, but that is my best guess. The reason for my depression dates back to when I was 10, so roughly 1997. I lost my grandfather, someone who I always looked up to and really never got to know as well as I'd have liked to. My years through high school were a struggle, too. I wasn't popular. I was a "band geek" - I hate cliques. So naturally, I wasn't the happiest. A week before graduating high school I lost another person who was closest to me. My best friend, my grandmother. That was the worst for me. I didn't want to attend graduation or senior night. I didn't want to go to school. I stopped caring and would come home and eat. There isn't anyone but myself to blame for this getting out of hand. Over the next few weeks I met Jarv.. what a life saver he was. Jarv and I started dating and I ended up happier. I'm still happy, but not with myself. Over the course of the next 2 1/2 years, I gained a lot of weight. Like I said before, I never went over 250lbs, but now 3 years later I'm 307lbs. Wow. I never thought I could be this heavy. Ever. I never wanted this to happen, but it did. I tried the whole thing of going to a nutritionist, but they wanted me to write everything down I ever ate in a day. I was too busy to worry about that. I think I was also embarassed I had to do that. I am now going to WW. A wonderful group of people all in the same boat as me, or were in the same boat doing exactly what I'm doing striving for a goal of a slimmer you. I'm in week 2 of WW and I must say, I'm happy. After dropping the first 4lbs, I realized, "That's all? That was easy." Diet and exercise go hand-in-hand |
Who I hope to meet:
Today, July 26, 2008, I vow to be more active. This means going to the guy and actually utilizing that $40/month membership more than once a week, more like 4-5 times a week. That also means eating even better than I did last week. I'm proud of myself for loosing the 4lbs I did loose. That's about it..
I'm 21 years old and I'm making a difference in my life before it's too late.
I want to meet a healthier, slimmer me! |

The Dilemma
To laugh is to risk appearing a fool.
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out for another is to risk involvement.
To expose feelings is to risk rejection.
To place your dreams before the crowd is to risk ridicule.
To love is to risk not being loved in return.
To go forward in the face of overwhelming odds is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing.
He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or love.
Chained by his certitudes, he is a slave.
He has forfeited his freedom.
Only a person who takes risks is free.
