I know you've probably seen and heard it all before, people starting website blogs to journal their weight loss journey.  Unless you've been in the shoes of an overweight person you'll never know how hard it is to stay motivated, keep pushing and watching every little thing you do.  I'm 36 years old, I've been battling weight issues most of my life, now in the prime of my life with a husband that I love dearly and kids I'd like to see grow up and gett married some day I find that I'm fighting one health issue after another; high blood pressure, acid refulx that has caused ulcers in my throat, possible heart issues and that's just a few things i've been dealing with but I realize that no one put me in this position I did it to myself.   So here I am hoping with all my hope that this will be what helps keep me going.
