Hi ladies! I'm here today to confess my sins and repent. I LOVE chocolate, bread, fried anything, potatoes, and cheesecake. But as of THIS moment, I'm going to love myself. I am only 21 years old and I feel like I've aged 40 years since I graduated high school. I can't climb stairs without feeling like I've ran a marathon. I'm embarrassed to see my friends. I have gained 50 lbs. in 3 years! I am miserable and tired of being ashamed of myself. I want to love my 20s, not hide in my room. I am 170 lbs @ 5'4. My BMI is 29.2... only .8 away from being obese. I am too good for this. I am sick and tired of family members suggesting I try this diet.. or saying 'just go on a diet and get off your butt and work out'. WOW, thanks, I didn't think of that! I'm not lazy or worthless. I work full time and go to school full time. But, during this winter break from school, I HAVE to start the routine of working out and eating right. I have to think about my health. I have to work harder than I've ever worked before.
Whew. I guess that was a letter to myself but I just wanted to say it to someone who isn't my family or friends. I have 22 weeks until I'm 22. I want to lose 45 lbs. Wish me strength. Everyone here is such an inspiration. Especially MichaelAnn. You look so amazing. You inspire me because I use to have the excuse that "Genetically, I am suppose to be bigger".. but obviously it's up to me change.
I'm EXCITED!!!!
