Hey everyone
well, I was searching for something on google... I don't really remember what. Maybe something about calories, and I found this website. And I thought "haha well that's a cute name"... then I started looking at the threads and everything and decided to join
I've never done this whole forum thing, but hopefully it'll turn out well.
I'm starting out with a week long body cleanse... which means I can eat absolutely no unhealthy food. But, I think that's a good start.. cleaning my body of toxins and then getting into the habit of eating healthy.
I've been struggling with my weight since I was a kid. My mom and older brother would constantly call me fat, and when I look back at pictures of me from even just a few years ago, I don't think I looked fat at all. Certain events happened in the past few years that caused me to be really depressed... and, yes, now I do look in the mirror and go "well. that needs to change."
Another big reason I want to lose the weight is because in two years I want to join the Air Force after college. Members of my family have always been military, and I think it'd be cool to (1) be the first girl in the military in my family and (2) serve my country :]
So, I have a treadmill, I have Wii Fit, I have two corgis I take for walks... now, I have the motive.
Wish me luck
