A lil about me and an update on progress

Okay so first off I have to say I have never done a blog before.  I'm still learning so please bare with me.:)  I am 31 yrs old married and have one beautiful daughter.  It seems like my weight problem began at about age 10. I don't think it was because of lack of exercise because I was always outside and riding my bike and playing.  I did however eat a lot of junk food and in my house it was never a problem to go back for 2nds or even 3rds on meals.  I had lost a lot of weight my last yr of high school.  My lowest weight ever that I can remember was 170 or 175.  I met my husband married and had my daughter at age 21.  After having her my weight went from 170 to 220.  From there it just got worse and last yr I hit a all time high of 286.5.  I did the HCG diet and got down to 230lbs in 3 months.  I then was in the part of the plan where you maintain and that did not happen for me I started eating whatever whenever I wanted and gained back weight.  My husband and I have wanted more kids and the doctors say it is not happening because of my weight.  That is a lot of pressure on me and I feel guilty.  So here I am starting on the roca labs.  So far it's going well.  I seem to be losing a lil slower this time but that's okay with me as long as I lose.  My goal right now is to lose about 80lbs.  That at least puts me under 200.  I am 5'6 and a half and do not have a thin build at all if that makes sense so I have a hard time seeing results.  I did have my husband take staring pics I just have not had the guts to post them.  Maybe I will when I lose more weight and I can show results.  So I started at 264.5 on 3/29/11 and today 4/8/11 I am down to 256.3 so I have lost a total of 8.2lbs. I'll take it cause as I said in my last post I had a day where I totally failed and ate all day long even tho I was not hungry.  Ugg it's that head hunger that get's me all the time.  But I know I will so excited and jumping for joy when I see 180 on the scales even tho the doctors say I should weight anywhere from 145 to 150 at my height.  I did start exercising I have two machines I switch between to mix it up a lil.  I have a reg walking machine and a EFX elliptical machine.  So far I have done 30 min a day on one or the other.  I would like to work up to an hr a day.  So I guess that is all for now. I just wanted to update you on my progress and give you all a little background on myself.  Oh and I love the fb group all you ladies are doing so well. So high five to you.  You guys keep me going so thank you!
