I have been overweight my entire life. I was always the "fat kid" who was picked on, couldn't play sports, and never could wear clothes like my friends. Growing up was hard. In high school, I was the one who was never asked to a dance or on a date.
This year I hit 300 pounds, the most I have ever weighed. It was then that I decided I was NOT going to stop living because I was overweight, but knew I needed help.
