Hey Everyone! Im new to the site. I thought I should introduce myself, so here it goes :P. When I was a kid I was seriously like bone skinny, but I'd eat
everything. My mom always told me that it would catch up to me and when I was about 11, that happened. I was overweight ever since then, slowly packing on more weight. One year when I was 14 my mom and I went to weight watchers together and I remember how excited I was when I got to 190 pounds. Since then I've gained it back (Ahhh). I really want to get serious about weight loss. I started my diet on January 1st, and I've lost 7 pounds so far. I can't even tell a difference though. Basically I'm just doing a vegan diet. I'm also excersizing for 30-45 minutes a day minimum.
My motivation is pretty much to get healthy and confident in myself, when I look in the mirror. I don't want to feel like the "chubby one" anymore. I want to look in the mirror and see me for who I am, someone that God made beautiful

. Beyond losing weight I also want to gain self esteem. Along this journy I want to learn to love myself inside and
outside. I want to realize that there IS more to life than a # on a scale!
In July I'm getting married. That of course is a ton of extra motivation. I want to look and feel my best on my wedding day and night.
Through this site I hope to make friends going through the same thing I am. Im ready to change!
