Strange Famous

I just weighed myself... and I am tipping the scales at 304 lbs

304 lbs!!!!!

I am just, I dont know.... I've been supposedly trying to lose weight for so long, and obviously a complete failure cos I am now fatter than I have ever been in my life... I understand it is a simple equation of burning more calories than I consume... so why am I so huge?

I have problems at work, mainly people always buying sweets and cakes and biscuits in the office and sharing them round, plus a lot of times I end up eating lunch twice, cos I bring something packed up, eat that at 11, then go out and buy something else at 1... I also eat too much junk, dont do enough exercise (I walk a mile to work, but thats about it, I have only played squash once this year and I dont play soccer anymore, have been to the gym once all year as well) I drink way too much, which is the main cause of it I think... I mean, I know its just a matter of will, but everything in my life seems to get pulled down by this sense of apathy that just envelopes me

I really want to change... I understand the things I need to do to change,,,anyway, I had an idea that I hope is cool. As in weightwatchers and slimming clubs like that, I thought it may help some people (and being selfish I hope it helps me) to have a weekly weigh in here - so this will be like a online weight watchers - so post your weight up every week and it can be a motivator to help you get started... if there are any other people like me out there that really want to lose some weight and just feel they need a push - this can be an opportunity. And, well, I havent actually done anything yet - and I have many times promised to start a great weight loss campaign and have not... but I hope i can achieve something and if I can, anyone can.

Lastly, I hope I am not encroaching on the position of the moderators to say that anyone coming up in here to make negative or derogatory comments about anyone else's weight or size is not gona be that welcome.
