My name is Crystal I live in Loudon, Tennessee. I eat because its the only way I know how to fill the void of lonliness in my life. I am right now at my heaviest which is 350lbs+. I was a Certified Nurse Aide for 10 years and I have had to give thatup, because i just can't do it anymore. I have no health insurance and no income, I am still living at home with my mother who is also overweight and disabled. I just don't know where else to turn or what else to do. I hope you or someone else on the boards can help me please. I DON"T WANT TO DIE!! Not yet. and more than anything I want to find love, real love not the ony kind I have ever known which is the kind where you are used for what you can give someone and when that is gone so are they. Someone please help me, tell me where to begin.I want so badly to lose weight and be healthy and happy, but I just have no idea where to begin.I want to be able to be a CNA again

start by getting rid of the junk food in your diet and eating fresh fruits and vegetables and chicken or fish.

then start going out the door each day and walking. a little farther each day.Even if your first walk is only a block, it is a start.

you have to love yourself before anyone else.
