Fed Up with Being Fat
(formerly "AvoidinReality"...I feel that name does not represent me as I travel on this new journey.....now I am a phoenix rising "fromtheflames"!) I've reached my breaking point! After years of hovering around the 235/230lb mark (at only 5ft tall), I started to feel the "tightening of the belt". I will not allow one more pound on this body! I control my body, it does not control me! 08/20/12 - 235lbs 09/01/12 - 230lbs 09/10/12 - 226lbs
