Back After A Long Time (2 years or more?
| Wed, 07-06-2005 - 2:31am |
Yesterday, July 5th, was my 28th birthday, and I made a vow to myself to lose weight again. Currently I weigh 246 and would like to weigh 130-140 by May 21, 2006 when I graduate from my masters program. The last 2 years of my life has changed who I am in many ways, and my weight loss vow is a result of those changes. I have 2 little boys, Alex is 2 and David is 11 monthes old. What has really impacted me though is the sudden death of my dad almost 2 years ago. He died of a sudden and fatal hearth attack at age 54. He was overweight, but he had lost about 30 pounds before his death. I am really scared that with my obesity, that the same thing can happen to me, but at an even earlier age. Therefore, with you all as my witnesses, I vow to lose weight for my life! Please support me!! Thanks!

Happy Birthday!!! It sounds like you have already accoplished so much if you are about to get your masters congrats! Good for you for making a decision to make you life better. What do you do for weight loss? I look forward to hearing from you, good luck on wverything.

Thanks for your reply Lexi. The problem is that I'm not following any specific plan. I'm starting out by making a conscious effort to cut sweets and move more. With 2 little boys I feel like I'm always on the go, but we know go for evening walks as well. I once did weight watchers and liked the point system, but I still need to dig that all out. What about you? Are you following any specific plan? What are your goals??
Thanks for your support!!
