I’ve been overweight since I was 12. I became obese after I got married, gaining over 100 lbs in 4 years. My highest weight was 342 lbs. After my divorce I decided to make a change for the better. My goal is to weigh 200 lbs and I don’t have a goal date mainly because it isn’t about the results, it’s about progression.

I’m really tired to trying to lose weight and I’m ready to actually start losing. The site I’ve been using just isn’t inspiring me to use it every day. I’ve gone to the doctor to have some things checked out to make sure I’m not battling against health things that could make it harder to lose weight.

I want real accountability. Real results. I need to be honest but I need the to stay away from the nutrition facts and tiny details. I’m hoping to make this a real food log and exercise diary. I’m not going to care about if I’m making the calorie requirements or meeting the calories burned that day. It’s just too frustrating with all the numbers.

I will be honest about how much I’m eating and how much I’m exercising. I’m changing who I am realistically. Completely. Freely.

I’m fat. I’m comfortable being fat. I want to be comfortable losing weight too. I am hypothyroid as well, so I struggle to see changes even if my efforts are stressful.

Exercise is a crux to me. I have a lot of issues with getting myself up and working out; but I do intend on boosting my diet with regular cardio and strength training.

My current long term goals are:

• I will make every effort to lose 1/2 to 1 lb a week with no more than 2 lbs a week.
• I will aim for 30 mins of exercise 5 days a week, although daily would be better.
• I will not let stress burden me overly much. I will not worry about the things I can do nothing about.
• I will plan every meal so that it is balanced and healthy. I will have a salad with every meal eaten out.

My daily goals are:

• Eat plenty of variety in dishes to not get bored.
• I will stick to a healthy eating routine.
• Exercise 30 mins or do one strength training routine.
• Take my vitamins
