Mark from Dallas

Hey everyone,

My name is Mark. I'm 21 years old and I weigh 359 pounds. I've been obese my entire life and every time I lost weight, I've gained it back and then some. I'm ashamed I let myself waste away like this.

I've been married two years to my best friend. She is what we would call a skinny fat kid :wink:. We have the same appetite, but only I gain the weight. We are expecting our first child this September and I pray my son will never see me this way.

As ironic as it seems, I am going to Bible school and my passion is healing. It's funny, the area of my passion is where Satan attacks me most. I guess its just going be that much bigger of a testimony one day lol

God recently gave me a message on why I've struggled so hard with my weight. If you interested you can read more about that here:

It's nice to meet everyone :) Feel free to add me as a friend!

-Mark

    Good Luck on your journey! You can do it if you are dedicated. Congratulations to you and your wife. Hopefully your son will be an amazing motivation. I know my friend lost a lot of weight for her daughter so I am sure you can do it too!
