When I Started:
Dec, 2006
How I Started:
A very supportive friend who was doing it himself and told me I could do it too. I'd started dieting because I found out I was pre-diabetic, but his encouragement led me to join a gym.
Why I Love It:
I can't really say Im at the point where I *love* it yet. Im glad that I go. It makes me feel like I've accomplished something real after I've worked out. Its something I couldnt do before.
How I Stay Motivated:
Everyone at work knows what Im trying to do, so they're always asking me how things are going. I never want to say "Oh, I quit"
BB Accomplishments:
I went back. Again. April 2007
I lost 6" off my waist and 43 pounds! Aug 2007
Dec 07 - total loss - 61 lbs!

My brother's wedding Self reward - I went blonde!
This is me at my heaviest - 399 pounds, with my baby boy. It was shortly after this that I started dieting.  As a reward for hitting the 50 lbs mark, I went blonde. How's it look?

Gain Muscle
Goal (Overall):
I would like to lose 200 pounds.
Goal (Long):
I started this odyssey I guess in December 2006. I'm still learning a lot. I had a friend who had gotten me sortof started but now Im trying to branch out and learn more on my own so here I am :) I dont know what Im doing so I can't write anything detailed. I joined Gold's gym and hired a personal trainer there. I've started using Body Fortress whey protein, one a day weight control vits, lots of water, South Beach diet meals and bars, and just generally trying to get away from my love of all things carb and reduce my calories and increase my activity. Things are slow and at the gym they're painful, but Im hopeful. I'm 5'11 or so and started at 399 lbs. I'd like to eventually be around 175. I am currently 365. I have not been fat all my life. I was always 'bigger' (I'm a true Amazon, I swear) but in high school I wore a size 10 comfortably and ran track and was very active. Suddenly I got hit with several wammys - college all you can eat dining halls with loads of pizza, then major battles with bipolar disorder, then children along with an emergency c-section that kept me in the bed for months and a fall from a horse that cracked my hip. Suddenly I went from all out active to zero movement. And I gained 225 pounds. Another person. Another large person. I still battle the bipolar disorder, but the exercise seems to help. I still have kids, but they have to deal with it cause I know I can be a better mom this way. I desperately need all the help I can get so any words of encouragement are greatly appreciated. Also, I have no idea what Im doing. So Ill ask tons of questions. Dumb questions. Oh, my bodyfat when I started was 52%. Yeah, I know. Danielle

Hey! Yeah I know. I have been gone for a bit. I not only let myself get derailed, I didn’t dish out the encouragement to my friends. I apologize. I know I don’t have to but I have found that my friends help me stay on track and I hope I do you as well. So please forgive me for abandoning you and fill me in on what you have been up to these last couple of months. How are your workouts? Diet? Motivation? What are you looking forward too? Have your goals changed?

Awesome achievement! Your weight loss is inspiring. I can definitely relate to your struggle. I've started myself but it's been extremely slow. I was looking for motivation, but it's hard when you can't relate to people who don't know what it's like having a large body. Keep up the excellent work and hang in there!!! :)

I dropped in for a visit to see how you are doing and to ask how things are going? How have you been feeling? Have you been working with a particular weight loss program? Do you feel it is working? I hope you know I wish you success and happiness and if there is anything I can do to help all you have to do is give me a yell.

Do not allow yourself to get hung up on things that have already happened, or worry about about things that may happen. Concentrate on what you are shooting for right now and everything else will take care of itself.
