I am 5ft5 and live in Milan. I have had a weight problem since around 25. I am probably a classic case where the weight piled on year after year and now I look in the mirror and ask myself, how did I get so big?? Well, after a few bouts of moderate depression, I can now feel in control to take my eating habits in my own hands and start doing something about my weight. My goal is the weight I had when I was around 18 - 20 years of age. It may not be possible to achieve that weight, but I know that I had that weight at that age and I had a very sedentary lifestyle, and now I am aiming to do at least 5 aerobic workouts by end of january 2014!!
