so this is the story of me and how i had always been fat. it started last year in december when i realized that i needed to get fitter. i had always had a problem with food and depression. at the end of december of 2008 my 5'7 frame was at its peak of 280 lbs. (ALMOST 300!) i decided to be happy. i have always known i was the creator of my own, so i did it. i dumped the jerk off ex fiance, dumped that crappy job, and started to change my life, which ment i needed to lose weight.
I am in love with my new fiance juan. I love my company i work for, and i have lost 70 lbs since jan.
so now i have some more goals. im half way there! all i want is to be able to say i have lost 100 lbs by december of 09. my goal is in march of next year. i hope to get to my goal weight of 153 lbs. i have 57 more lbs to go! and i am hoping that this life style change will help me. i just have been noticing how many carbohydrates i intake. it is obscene. for me joining this group is simply to learn. i need to learn that everything needs to be in moderation. i am a vegetarian so this will be an interesting journey i can assure you.

thanks for letting me be apart of your humble community!
