Hello, my name is Grace! I joined this site in order to form a support system as I embark on my weight loss journey. Perhaps it not so much of a journey as some of you, but I hope to loose 20 to 30 pounds. The real challenge is doing so healthily without falling back into anorexic tendencies.
Just two days ago I hopped on the scale and realized i was 130 pounds. Unfortunately this is the heaviest I've been in my entire life. I've tried countless ways to diet and lose weight, some potentially life threatening. I've been hospitalized twice and the desire to lose weight is going strong. I can't look in the mirror and feel good and I want that to change. Its time to lose weight and the time is now. So, I intend on using this community to go about doing it the right way.
I have finally come to my senses and I refuse to relapse once more. I don't have the time to go to a treatment facility, or injure myself again. Infact, just last school year I broke four bones from a foot fall. It was then that I knew I had to stop the throwing up, the starving, the diet pills once and for all.
However, as a result it got hard for me to workout and I had to give up my excersise regimen. So now i just feel gross all the time...I want it to stop
Dieting aside, my interests mainly surround art. I enjoy graphic design, traditional art, and photography. I go to a technical highschool and have studied graphic design and animation since freshman year. Its truely something that brings me joy.
Other interests include writing,relaxing, having fun, trying new things, and being with friends. I looooooove the beach
...and I don't know what else to say.....
