I am 32 and have always been overweight.I am at my biggest now and swore to myself I would never get past 200. A bad relationship and not caring about myself has led to this. I now know you can only be happy if your first happy with yourself. With that in mind I have begun the diet. After watching all the celebs on VH1 I told myself if they can do it so can I. I have friends around me that support me so hopefully that will make it a little easir. I live in CA and love to be outdoors so maybe that will help as well when it comes to being able to go out and get some exercise.
