The Beginning

Hello everyone,  I'm so glad that you have found my blog. My name is Enchante, I am 23 years old and yes I am over weight.  At first I never really considered myself overweight although I have been this way all my life. The doctors use to tell me how over weight I was and I thought, "you gots to be kidding me, your really trying to measure my body mass index on a chart for the normal american?" I swear I ignored the doctor's and always told them what they wanted to hear. You know the same olé questions they ask you, "are you working out?" "Are you eating healthy foods and using the correct portions?" And as always my answer was YES! I was lying of course because I didn't want to deal with facing the fact that I am obese! The first thing that made scared was when the doctor told me I have Type 2 diabetes when I was only 16 years old. Did that stop me from eating my favorite foods?? Ummm...NO...lol  As time flew bye I was getting bigger and bigger which landed me to my current weight 298, yes I typed it...I'ma  repeat it again 298. That's 2 pounds away from 300 and I'm not having it.  I love the skin I'm in but at no cost will I ever risk my health.  So today is the day I stand up and face the facts: 1.Im obese 2.My health is at risk and 3.Something has to be done. Which brings me here! I need yall to help me help myself and I will give the same support back. I need all positive energy which is gladly appreciated! So feel free to tag along, share your experience as I go through my journey of losing 100+ pounds! If you with me then say this pledge out lound: I promise to always love myself not matter the outcome. I will always keep it 100 with myself. If I should fall I will get back up and start again. I will not fail, because failing is not an option.  I love the skin I'm in but I love my health a whole lot more.  Thanks again for reading my blog. Follow me on instagram @ perfect_fit2014. I will be posting everyday, we'll at least try to! Bye!
