BioThis is a weight loss blog.
I'm a middle-aged gay man, a diabetic, a bear, a major tea drinker, chocolate lover, unfortunately morbidly obese and in desperate need of doing something about it. In the past I have found that becoming hyper aware, fixated if you will, has allowed me to do something about my situation. This I hope will be a place to be frank, compulsively honest, and accountable, if to no one else, at least to myself.
I've been dealing with weight issues on and off as long as I can remember. I was working out at the gym until 3 years ago, running on an elliptical stepper 3-5 times a week and loving it. Then I had a hemorrhage, losing about 1/2 of my blood volume in a one month period, from a flare of uncerative colitis. With no energy I stopped my time at the gym and have not been able to get it together since. I've gained 100 lbs since, leaving me at 370, some 190 lbs above what I should weigh. Not a pretty scenario.
I'm partnered, and have been for nearly 27 years, to a man who adores me, not for my weight, but for my soul. I need to lose more than he currently weighs, so no, he's not another heavy weight.
