I have many many reasons for .starting this journey. My primary reason is my healh, I feel as if I am already on a path of death unless I lose some of this weight. I have gained 140 lbs in 8 years, and I am very ashamed of myself. I feel as if this is beyond my control now. I try and lose weight and nothing happens. I feel like people are always looking at me, ecspecially when I am out to dinner with my family. I have an 8 year old daughter that I want to play with but I don not have the energy or stamina to keep up with her. I want my husband to still be attracted to me and not feel pity on my. I want to love myself again and not cry when I look at myself.
I could go on and on about my reasons, but my most important one is me, I need this for me to live.
