I'm 30 years old and have been overweight my entire life.  I remember shopping for clothes when i was young, and we shopped int he "pretty plus" section at Sears.   It was embarrassing then, and its embarrasing now.  My mother was overweight, her mother was, all the girls it seems have whatever it is that makes us overweight.  I could eat carrots for my entire life and I still would have a weight problem.    

This summer after my daughter started becoming very active I decided it was time for me to do something.  Actually, I had started thinking about it a long long time ago, but was embarrassed to speak up and do anything.   Now I know that there's nothing to be embarrassed about.     I'm doing something to change my life for the better and I"m excited!!   This is going to be a wonderful (and stressful) journey!
