I have been fat my whole life. My dad had a very bad thyroid condition and I inherited it (unfortunately). I am starting my diet plan right now. I would just like to thank everyone for all the postings, they really motivated me. I always say "I will start tomorrow", so I am starting this minute instead. I weigh about 275 and am 5'6. I am a size 20 or 22. I just wanted to post this. Maybe in a few months I will be down to a normal weight. I just wanted to say thanks, and hopefully I will have luck in what I am trying. If anyone would like to share weightloss ideas, I would love anything I could get. I have lots of ideas myself. I'm excited and ready!!!
