A Start

A few weeks ago I had a shock. I realised that I am wasting my youth, and possibly cursing myself to a lifetime of illness including diabetes, heart disease and sleep apnea. All because of my weight. I am 26 years old and have been overweight since I was about 10 years old.


I joined Weight Watchers on the 13th October 2008. I had a starting weight of 119kg. My goal weight is 70kg. Although I have tried dieting before it has always ended in me eventually giving up. I don't have that option anymore. This is going to take a long time, this is going to mean changing my entire lifestyle.

Here are my starting photos, and my starting measurements:

Wish me luck.
