Today was a real awakening for me. I went to the store to buy a new outfit, I picked out the things I liked in my usual size, when I got to the fitting room to try on the clothing nothing fitted. I knew I had gained about 5 lbs or so within the past few months, but now I realize its more than that. My current weight is about 260 - 265 and I'm 6'0. I have always been overweight as far back as I can remember. I have always wanted to fit into a size 10/12 jeans, and walk around in a bikini, but I have never gotten the chance, but now I have made up my mind to give myself that chance to wear whatever I want. I have read several of the success stories and congradulations to all that have lost weight, Now i am motivated to do just the same. I would like to loose 60 lbs before my birthday, but thats not possible seeing that it's only 3 months away. Before my birthday I hope to have lost between 25 and 30 lbs. if anyone has any suggestions please e-mail me at: sassi@37.com, my problem area is my lower body. Thanks!!!
