-Hello everyone, I'm new to the site.
I have for years have had a weight problem,all my life really and it had never been an issue because I have no health problems,I don't get winded from the stairs,run fast,etc .However,as I am now a young woman,I had begun to realize my weight effects how perceive me and I am sure people do not take me seriously.I had for the past two years wondered exactly why my weight was now an issue and I know now.
I had been contemplating on the lie I've been told about personality and all that other stuff being more important when common sense says if people are visual creatures,visual presentation is obviously more important,especially for people of average intelligence,no significant hobbies or anything,etc (no issue with this,we are who we are,that is what counts).
I aim to achieve a lot of things in life ,become an author,a psychologist,write screenplays ,etcand my weight is part of what is holding me back.How?
Well,before I gained an extra 60lbs ,I felt better about myself and therefore ,more confident.At the same time though,the weight gain came from a combination of poor eating habits and depression,which caused the other is rather difficult to decipher.
Anyway,on another note,I am NOT losing wight in search of a mate because go to hell ,if you waited to see me skinny to talk to me
.
So,while I am not one to judge people based on attractiveness alone,I am aware that 99% of the population does and if I want to be marketable,unfortunately a slim waist and a cute face is a necessity 9I'm already adorable...I'll post a pic when I get around to it)
In closing,I have come here because I am tired of my fat being one of the unnecessary barriers in my life and I am sure others feel the same.I am willing to support others however I can,and I in turn would like to be treated the same.I have tried so many alternatives and I absolutely need an intervention.I also fear that my weight will affect my ability to have kids,as I already have fertility and hormonal issues
I am 5'7 and 270lbs not something to be proud of and could potentially be dangerous in the future
