Hello! My name is Candie and this is one of my first ever posts on DIS! I have been on the boards many many times but never posted myself. I have been going to Disney since I was a kid. I went for the first time with my husband last month. After we got home and saw the pictures I was mortified with how much weight I have put on. This might be a good time to give you some background about me.
I was an athlete all my life. I played Junior Olympic Volleyball and coached little girls. My senior year in High School I hurt my shoulder very badly and could no long play. I was going to play in college and all that was gone before I new what was happening. At that point I hung up my running shoes and have not really worked out since. I think the gym just made me to sad .. I am now 24 and have put on way more weight then I ever thought I would and it is time for a life change.
My husband and I made a deal that when I loose 40 pounds he will take me on another trip to retake all of the picture that make me cry today. My husband is supportive but he is really the only one in my life that I can turn to. My mom is obsessed with her weight and is the opposite of helpful with this process, so I am not telling anyone but my husband that I am doing this until I loose 20 pounds. I do not want them to get their hopes up that the old candie is back until I know for sure! That is why I am turning to this forum. I could really use support with this and anyone who has made it through this crazy long post must care at least a little! My goal is to loose 2 and ½ pounds a week and two weeks into the process I am down 5 Pounds! Thank you all for your support and I hope that I can support you with your health goals!
