hi everyone. i'm danielle, 19 years old, from new york city. i've been in the process of losing weight for years. i was a chubby kid; i loved to eat then and still do! my largest size was a 10/11 (borderline 12), although during my younger teen years it fluctuated a lot between 10 and 8. my smallest size was a 6, a little over a year ago. i gained the dreaded "freshman 15" after my first year of college, but have lost most of it over this summer. i'm now a tight size 6 (due to my stomach...bleh). i know these sizes aren't that big, but i'm 5'2". a size 6 at 5'2" is much different than a size 6 on a woman who is 5'8". this being said, my goal is to be a size 4.
like i said, i know these aren't big sizes and you all might think i shouldn't be complaining, but i want this so badly. it has been disheartening to see my older sister, who is the same height as me, be a size 4 for her whole life. what i would do to wear an extra-small like her! it is something i've dreamed about for years. even though i've lost weight before, it just seems so much harder to do it now. that's why i joined this forum -- i need words of support and kindness! btw, looking at everyone's before & after posts has been inspiring.
sorry this is so long -- all of this has been bottled up in me! take care everyone!
