Going Green

Well, I'm 17, 180 lbs and size 12 in pants.

I'm sick of being the fat one in my group of friends, I'm sick of sticking my head out like a pigeon b/c I hate my double chin, I hate being self conscious when wearing sleeveless shirts because my arms are flabby, I hate not being able to wear skirts confidently because I feel my thunder thighs are hideous and I hate all the self degradation. I'm getting over it and I'm going to make it better today!

I actually do exercise more often than not, but with the immense amount of homework I have, exercising once a week (if then) is not cutting it. I've never before considered a diet necessary, but my metabolism sucks and I need to be eating healthier. So it's time to start my success story. ^_^

The diet that I'm going to be going on is not really a diet because I'm not going to stop it when I reach my goal. I'm making a lifelong change with this one, and going almost vegan. That's right, no animal products save for milk and eggs. It's also a combination of raw foodism and veganism so that I will abstain from eating cooked foods (except those eggs obviously) and in this way, I will lose the flab! I will stop embarrassing my boyfriend by making us look like the number ten when I stand next to him (he doesn't actually get embarrassed, it's me. He could care less and he's very supportive but it's for my own psyche). I want to be able to go to my senior prom and not look back on it years later with disdain because I've avoided the pictures or look obese in them.

As of March 11, 2008, I am 5,6' 180 lbs, size 12, nearing a double chin formation, flabby arms, thunder thighs, and ready to change! ^_^
 
we are so alike!!! it's insane. same nearly vegan diet, same weight, same height and only a year apart in age!

good luck!!

and your post totally gave me a boost knowing that someone else is in an almost parallel situation.
