Is this board for me?

Hi

I am 34 and I weigh 255....I need help...I am desperate...I am feel hopeless...I feel fake...I am pathetic....

On one hand I don't want anyone to feel sorry for me because that would make me feel more pathetic...I guess I am looking for understanding...

I want to lose weight...I have to

I snore...very loudly...I have been having dreams of suffocating...very scary...there are other reasons but this one scares me the most...I want to use it to motivate me....

Is this board for me...Do you understand?

I need help

Sincerely,
Chan

No sympathy from me - if you want a pity party go somewhere else if you want support, good times, humor, and information then this is the right place for you... You'll find dozens of people who are walking the same steps that you are - and are trying to get to the same place you want to be.

You've come to the right place. Seriously.

Start yourself up a diary below and watch the support roll in.

I agree with maleficent. I doubt you will find anyone feeling sorry for you around here unless maybe you post something out of the ordinary, and I do not think you will find many people around here who have not experienced the feelings you describe.

Sleep apnea, if that is what you have, is a common byproduct of being overweight. If it is interfering enough to affect your dreams then it could easily be affecting your health. A visit to your friendly health provider would seem to be in order if only to help get you centered as you embark on this new journey toward increased health and happiness.

if you have a question for professional regarding food, exercise and similar than you post at Harsh truth. i advise you to start your diary (at Weight Loss Diary). there right about your journey, what you eat, what is your plan.. have alook around.
as for does anyone understand...boy we do...and noone will feel sorry for you don't worry
