Seventy Pounds To Svelte
 

I am fully aware that I will never be the skinny girl. I am hoping to no longer be the: pudgy girl, "sweet" girl, the girl who could be pretty....ugh! I want to be the strong healthy girl. I am determined to loose the weight now. I have taken a new job and will be moving in a few months. I want to start my new job in a new state being a healthy weight. I don't want the people I work with and meet
to know that I was ever overweight.

I started at 200 pounds and my goal is to get to 130lbs. I know I can do it, I just have to get control over my eating habits.

Here I am November 17th, and I am seventy pounds to svelte.

Welcome EastCoastAva!

Good luck on the beginning of your journey. Just keep at it and remember its just one step at a time.

PS At least you were called the sweet one. Im too cranky to get that title lol.

Good luck!! I can understand where you are coming from. All of my friends have luckily always been very accepting and nice to me about my weight since I was very very young. Now that they are all getting married, I always look like the single ogre beside them all. Even though I always get the.... you have such a pretty face...... I'm fed up of hearing that, its like a back handed complement of, you are pretty, but your still fat kind of thing.

I have lost 39lbs so far, but I still have about 100 still to go. I am at the stage where it isnt that noticeable to of lost nearly 40lbs. But Next year I will start weight training and hopefully that will tone and bring a better shape to me.

You can do it :D
