My name is Kay. I'm 28 years old and I'm dying. When you weight 278.4lbs, you are killing yourself. Slowly but surely. 

This is how much I weigh today. I don't want to be obese anymore. If something doesn't change, I will die. Might not be for a while but it will happen. I am suffocating myself in food and fat. 

This is stopping. 

I've tried to lose weight before. Like a million times before. It's always with the best of intentions. I do well for a day or two but my bad habits come back to get you and one thing leads to another and oops, you gained 10 lbs. 

Why is today any different from the rest of the days I've told myself I'm going to get healthy? I'm going to be committed. I have to be. 

I'm going to try something different. I'll be documenting everything I eat. The good, the bad and the ugly. I will be posting pictures along with nutritional breakdown starting March 2nd, 2015. 

My immediate nutritional goal is to get down to 1600 calories with 100g of carbs. I'm not going low carb, just lower carb for me. 

In order for BIG CHANGES to happen, I have to take little steps or it will not stick. This is not going to be a diet for me. It's a lifestyle change. Changes take a bit of time. 

I'm putting it out there that I am making a change to live longer and healthier. I'm going to fail every now and again. It's going to be hard. But it's going to stick.
