I think I’ve been in a bit of denial about just how big I’ve gotten over the past few years and especially lately. I’ll probably come to regret saying this but oh well. I’m almost 5’5 and 220 lbs. Obviously, this is completely out of control, especially for a 20 year old girl. My health hasn’t been very good lately but it’s only getting worse from my lifestyle. I’ve been thinking about going back to boxing. I had great workouts and a lot of fun doing that before. Mac fitness has a school there that looks pretty good. I know 06se-r is training there now, so any opinions on their boxing classes would be great. Well good for you, I don’t think you will regret saying it. Hey, admitting that you need to do something about your lifestyle is the first step. The next step is to get out there and just work as hard as you can!!! I’m proud that you are able to admit that you need to work on your health (so many ppl in this country can’t even admit THAT)–I like to refer to it as health and not as “weight” because your weight is relative to your body type and lots of other factors. I mean, not everyone can be a 5’10 100 pound size 0 waif, that is just not healthy–and NOT realistic for 99.9% of the women in the US. Good luck w/ your training! --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/pittspeed-fitness-nutrition-thread-update/180728)._
