The Full 180

So, I actually got inspiration for this challenge through a Youtube video I saw recently. In the video, the guy was talking about how he was getting older, and due to being overweight his entire life, his health had deteriorated. He had fertility problems, and heart issues, and joint pain. So he gave himself an ultimatum. He would change his life in 6 months. He would get healthy. So that's what I'm doing. And I'm going to try to document it as best as I can. I'm using this blog as a promise to myself that I will reach day 180. That said, I doubt any of my posts will be lengthy. I'm trying not to burn myself out. But I do plan to post once a day. And I hope that I can get some pictures, so I can compare the progress over the next 6 months. We're shooting for a lifestyle 180 in 180 days. I will eat healthy. I will exercise. I will work on my mental health. I will love myself.

So. What is the purpose of this blog? Well, I'm here to tell you, in this post. Just a note now, this post is more or less a very in depth, uncensored look into my personal life, and may be a bit graphic at points. So, if you're not ready to take this leap into my life just yet, if you're not ready to know this much about me, now's the time to turn back. You've been warned. ************************************************************************ Essentially, the reason for this blog, and the reason for everything that is related to this, is because I am fat. I hate that sentence. I hate writing it. But it's true. I am fat, and I have been fat for a very, very long time. Even when I didn't, per se, look fat on the outside, I was still fat on the inside. Always fat . It started at a young age. My parents loved to feed me, and I blame it partially on the famine they suffered through during their childhood, plus the fact that I was an only child....
