Hello all, I am 29 years old mother of one. I have always had issues with my weight even when I did't look over weight in my mind I have always been fat. I have been on every diet known to man and even some I made up ( the baby food diet). Don't ask. So I decided to lose it the right way. Slow and steady. I am about to be 30 this june and I do not want to take all this weight with me into the next chapter of my life. I am currently 5'8 and weigh 203lbs. My goal is be 165lbs by my birthday. This site has been a blessing. I know I can do it and I will do it. I can do all things possible thru Christ which strengthens me. God bless you all and stay encouraged.
