Ht. 5'5", Start: 265.5 lb, Today: 265.5 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 120 lb - PI haven't weighed in awhile so I'm not really sure what I weigh. I feel like I gained, I sure hope not:(. Being this obese sucks. I can do what my friends do just not with ease. It's takes lots of effort to do just about anything, walk, jog, walk up stairs. I get embarrassed a lot not just when I'm in public but even when I'm at home or with family. The other day my mom took me to the mall to Christmas shop with her & only after about 15 minutes I was very tired from walking.Clothes are hard to find. I can't wear cute clothes like my friends because of my size. I carry a lot of my weight in my belly so shirts ride up when ever o do anything. I wear a lot of sweats because they fit good & when I wear jeans its very uncomfortable because we can't find any big enough they are also difficult for me to button & zip them up & need help from my mom sometimes. Space is also a issue. Like I said in one of my previous post some chairs aren't wide enough for me or hold me. On thanksgiving we went to my aunts house & I sat inside on the couch the entire time because none of her chairs were wide enough. I have a big appitittie & I am never full when we eat out we normally go to buffets because my parents notice I never seem to have enough & my mom makes lots of food when she cooks. I go back for at least 2nds at every meal I have, a lot of the times I even go back for 3rds. I snack a lot to. All of this as to stop bit o don't know were to stop, could some of you give me advice. Please & thank you :/
