Before

BEFORE


When I graduated high school I weighed a good 183 lbs. Not that anything was wrong with that, I have seen beautiful women who have weighed more than that! But, I wasn't happy with myself. I was miserable not being able to wear what I wanted and hated that I could barley fit into my graduation dress when the day came. Now, I would like to tell you that I was determined to lose weight, I worked hard, etc. But, that is the thing...I didn't. I suffered from my Gallbladder attacks nightly, daily, and all in between. So, I started to lose weight with a combination of birth control and being sick. As November of 2013 hit, I got down to 140! After my surgery that month, I was down to 128 lbs. My goal was to be 120! This is a healthy weight for my height (5'3") and I plan on gaining and toning my muscles in my arms, stomach, legs, and butt. My goal is not to be "perfect" or "beautiful". My goal is to be happy with who I am PHYSICALLY. UPDATE: A few years later, I still struggle with my weight. I was steady at 130lbs and have gotten myself back up to 155lbs. This is where I'm starting again Nov 8 2014

3 years later...

November 9, 2017

It's been a while. Too long. I have sinced moved from my home town in Georgia to the city in Florida. I have a full time (and then some) job as a bakery manager. I am now married (for a year and half), own a house (at the age of 23!!), two cars, two beautiful kitties (Anna & Elsa!) and weigh 155lbs.

When I moved to Florida I was at 130lbs. Have since stopped working out due to living on the 3rd floor apartment for two years taking my occasional walk around the complex or to and from work.

Now, that has stopped. My anxiety is crippling but we will get into that another day.

So here I am. 155lb and 23 years old. My husband and I have decided to make this work together. We want to lose the weight. We want to be healthier again. Back to where we once were.



This is me now. Nothing to be ashamed of, I've always been "big". But, I want to be healthier and join my husband in this journey. So, I hope to be posting more blogs and the occasional vlog into my steps to becoming fit again!
