Lost 200lbs...

Hey guys,

My name is Wilmer, and I used to be part of another weight loss forum. Which appears to be gone :(. After searching for a cool site, I came across this one and decided to join.

So who am I?

Once again my name is Wilmer, and I have been over weight pretty much my entire life. It wasn't until 2008 I hit my highest weight of 380 lbs. I reached a pain threshold and decided to change once and for all. I didn't know what to do, so I jumped on the forums and asked away. With the help of many awesome people just like you, I was guided and lost 200lbs! You can see my progress on my website

After losing 200lbs, I changed jobs and slowly became depressed because the place was filled with so much negativity. In 2 years I gained close to 100 lbs. I am currently 280 lbs, and I am on my way to losing the weight once more!

I know it will be difficult but I can do it! That is why I decided to become part of this cool forum. I know how important a community is for support! especially one with the same goals. I post and keep my current progress on my youtube page I make videos in hope to inspire others!

Thank you for having me!
 
Hi Wilmer & welcome to the WLF forum. I'm glad you found us. It is a really good place to get support. Many of us have diaries & that enables us to "visit" one another & offer & receive support. The link to that section is http://weight-loss.fitness.com/forums/weight-loss-diary.9/
You mention negativity in your workplace being a contributor to your weight gain. I can understand that. I think positivity is really important and being surrounded by negativity can weigh us down. I didn't intend that pun but will leave it there! :blush5: I am really pleased to see that you are not negative about yourself. Feeling positive will help you get to your goal, along with determination, perseverance, learning from mistakes.......
Once again a big welcome. I hope to see you over in the diary section. Cheers, Cate
