I have come to the realization that if I want to change my body I have to start somewhere...

I am ashamed to say I am 321 lbs. I have tried to justify my weight in every way possible. I am 6'1" and people say you don't look close to 300...well the scales do not lie...I am 47 years old. The same age as my father when he had his first heart attack. He wasnt heavy, but he was a heavy drinker and smoker...so I rationalized it won't happen to me....Did I mention I am a Licensed Nurse, former body builder, and former HEAVY STEROID user? My military days took away my ability to effectively run more that 3 steps without wincing in pain...

But as GOD IS MY WITNESS, I will lose 100lbs!!!

I am not diabetic...YET. My last A1C was 5.9...as close to the border as you can get...

I ask for a simple prayer that I can overcome my late night binges and constant need for food... I have been laid off for 6 months and have gained 40 pounds in that time frame...

Thanks for reading my post, and thanks in advance for your prayers...
