Ok, here it goes. My story is probably very similar to others, but I will share it anyway. I was always a chubby kid; I played football in high school and was always told that I carried my weight "well". So it wasn't a big issue for me. At times it would get me down but I always managed to cope. I would say in college is when it really started to catch up with me. Football was over for me, so I had no excuse left to hide behind the weight. Over the years I have tried everything and have even lost about 50lbs on two separate occasions using Atkins. But I always would gain it back. Anyway years later and pounds heavier I have come to this new crossroad in my life. As my date approaches I am beginning to become more nervous, but there is also some excitement as well. But regardless of my emotions, I am committed to this new journey and next step in my life. I want to thank everyone on this site for sharing their stories. Their success and failures a like. I hope to be like many of you soon! God Bless.
