I contacted a program via email last night called Weigh Down. They called me today on my way home from Akron... and I signed up. There's two orientations and then the program starts on July 27th. It goes for eight weeks. I'm really looking forward to it and I'm really hoping this helps me get started on this badly needed journey.
My last doctor's visit, I weighed in at 296lbs. At 5'9, I can no longer carry my weight well. It shows... and badly. I think I have a BMI of 42, which I believe crawls in under clinically obese.
I used to not feel too bad about myself, but lately I've just felt like an ugly elephant walking around, shaking the earth and jiggling while I walk. That's the most unpleasant feeling in the world.
I don't have much discipline, and no will power at all. This will be a struggle, and I'm hoping I'm ready to take that struggle on. I know for sure my mom will always be there to support me in any way she can. I just hope she is enough support, along with whatever support I find in the program.
