User Profile

I am a central california college student who has been overweight for the span of her memory. I have been clinically obese since I was a freshman in high school. For most of my life I turned a blind eye to my weight and health issues because at the time, to me, they only affected my level of conformity (which meant very little at the time). Now though, I have come to realize the severity of the situation I now find myself. My health has suffered severely because of how much weight I carry, and almost more severe, the emotional impact it has had on my life. I think I have finally hit as close to rock bottom as I want to go, and I want to start climbing out of this hole. Lots of things have helped me dig it, including my upbringing and my environment, but I think it's deep enough now and I want to climb out, and bury my excess weight in it.

A Note to readers, This jounral will track everything to do with my weight loss, how much I have lost in a given time, how much I might have gained, and everything I eat will be kept track of using twitter. If while reading you feel like you want to talk about what weight loss methods have worked for you, or if you have found any particularly delicious low-cal recipes you'd like to share, please feel free to do so. I would love to hear all of them, as I have very little foundation to build on as far as nutrition is concerned.
