Little Big Girl

I have decided to start this blog partly because I need a way to express how I feel and mostly because my husband gave me the idea of blogging. As we all know My name is Kristie and I am obese. I have been overweight for most of my life, but there were times when I was a lot smaller. When I was a kid I was so active. I was into sports and motocross and four wheelers. I was always outside doing something. Now on my down time you can most always see me inside laying down or sitting on the bed with my computer right there with me. I have gotten lazy. I hate going outside, I can't handle when the weather gets hot and I NEED to change this... I live in a desert and I cannot handle heat... How ironic...
The best health of my life was when I was in 7th grade up until I was about 16. I ran track, was in ROTC so I did PT, and I was trying to be a part of any sports that would get me out of my house and away from my living situation. I got addicted to drugs during all of that time too, so I had wasted away to practically nothing for my bone structure. I looked sick, but hey I was the smallest I had been in my life so I was as happy as I could be. When I was 16 my uncle committed suicide in our house and I was made to clean up the mess of that so I got depressed. Then my stepmom decided I needed birth control and my depression caused me to not want to participate in sports so I blew up like a whale. I am now 24 and struggling with everyday life because I am obese. It kills me that even at Walmart its hard to find clothes that will fit me. I have to change this. I need help so maybe the support from this blog will be enough to get me going...
