POST: Hey Loseit! 

I am a long time lurker. Your stories have been a big inspiration over the past year to try to make myself a better me. Unfortunately I have a terrible habit of giving up before seeing any results. I feel this is due to the lack of support and accountability in my life.

I am female, 5'5, and 201 lbs. At my peak weight during my sophomore year of college I was about 230 lbs, I have only kept that weight off because I no longer drink everyday and I do not live with terrible roommates anymore. I have not always been so big, the only job I could find during high school was at McDonald's and it caused me to balloon from a size 5 to an 18.

I am sick of being overweight. I am sick of sleeping on my side being uncomfortable. I am so so very sick of being shocked at how big I am when I see pictures of myself. I am an ambitious and driven person in every aspect of my life except for taking control of my weight.

Even though I am overweight, I have always been very athletic. My stamina is obviously not what it used to be and I do breather heavily from working out, but I am very strong for not maintaining anything. So I have decided to join my neighbor's crossfit gym. I know there is a lot of hate for crossfit because it seems cultish, but I think I almost need that intense group aspect to motivate me to get out of the house.
TL;DR: 
I want to enjoy life again. I am posting here in front of all of you to make me feel more accountable to return to you in a year as a whole new person. Thanks for the community, r/loseit!
