Ready to finish what I started!
 

Hi, everyone!
My name is Rumple, which comes from one of my favorite characters on the TV show Once Upon a Time.
I'm seventeen years old and a homeschooled senior in high school. As a little girl, I wanted nothing more than to be as pretty as my sister ("pretty" and "thin" were interchangeable in my young mind).
Now, I want nothing more than to be healthy and in touch with my body before I start college in the fall. I started my first weight loss attempt in 2008, clocking in at 213 lbs, 13 years old, and 5 feet tall. I lost 30 lbs with my original attempt, gained 20 of it back, and am now making my way down the scale to a healthy weight. I calorie count, and exercised until I got shin splints in September of this year. Now, I'm ready to get back into my cardio and weightlifting, and finally vanquish those last 20-some pounds! After looking for a support system from my friends and family and not finding it, I'm hoping to find some reliable companions on the journey to being healthy.
