Hi everyone! I'm new here, and in truth, to dieting at all. I've always been blissfully unaware of how my body actually looked, because outside of myself, my fiance is the only one to see me naked in the past 15 years. I don't wear bathing suits often, so I never really had to confront how my body looked. Besides that, I had managed to convince myself I didn't care.
What changed, you ask? I went wedding dress shopping. There is no wake up call to the way your body looks stronger than a absurdly beautiful woman all up in your goodies, trying to fit you into the size dress you 'look like you should be able to fit into'. Ridiculous.
I decided that I need to do something. Not anything drastic, I don't want to fit into a size 0 (does anyone actually know a real person that wears a size 0 after they turn 16? For real, people), I just want to tone and feel as confident in myself as I did when I was 17 and falling in love.
So I'm drinking water and eating better foods. I decided I need a support system to help me through this. I have a wedding community, a military girlfriends community, why not a 'get my sexy back' community?
Sorry this was so long, and congratulations if you made it this far. I look forward to getting involved on this site and getting to know you better! See you around!
