[quote=Anonymous]I'm short and fat. Last December I decided I was tired of being obese (5ft 3 and 227 at my heaviest, female, age late 20s). I am also physically disabled (cerebral palsy), mentally ill (severe depression- previously hospitalized, and nearly debilitating anxiety). Aside from one close friend who is a complete angel, I am very socially isolated. This board has given me most of my inspiration tbh.

I have lost 33.5 pounds this year and I weigh 193.5 now.

I know it's only about a third of the way to a healthy weight (about 137 is the top of healthy BMI for me I think) but I'm proud of myself. I have improved my diet by not buying many processed sweet things or snack foods and trying to eat more vegetables & fish. I have slowly started exercising. I only walk about 15 minutes a day which isn't much but I used to barely get off the couch. Exercising is really hard for me since I use a walker & am in a lot of pain most of the time.

I have to brag somewhere or I will go crazy (because I live with my mother, to whom I am grateful for taking care of me but who I wish would stop berating me for being fat, ugly, and socially inept).

So I have made a pointless bragging thread here. If you made it through all my rambling, thanks. (Please be kind!)

I hope you all have a great day and are able to make progress towards your goals too![/quote]
