Hey Everyone!
Just read in a magazine about a lot of people that lost weight and used a blogging system or journal thing so I thought I would start one. I've been dieting and exercising about a year now, and lost 32 pounds

. My original weight was 214 pounds, and my goal was to lose 89 pounds, putting me at 125 pounds. I'm now at 182 pounds as of this morning, which means 57 pounds to go woohoo! Not too bad considering I cheated a lot and didn't stick to my program 100% a couple times of the year. I'm really excited to hit the 170's, but tomorrow is Thanksgiving which i'm not sure how i'm going to deal with that. I think i'm going to enjoy, but not overeat like I did in the past years. One slice of pie wont hurt, then i'll get back on it the next day.
The reason I wanted to start losing weight was to get in the healthiest shape I could be. Also, so I could be the beautiful person on the outside that I am on the inside. I hate sitting in a chair and feeling a bulge pushing out over my jeans, or my big arms sticking out of my t-shirt. I feel like everyone is staring at me thinking "What a fat ass" and it makes it hard to concentrate in school easily. My school is very sterotypical with the whole "Hollister, Abercrombie & Fitch, Armani, etc.etc." which only sizes very small people. I wear the shirts but let me tell you they don't look the best that's for sure.

I hate getting up and walking infront of the class feeling as though once again everyone's thinking something bad about me. I would love to change that into when I get up and walk infront of the room everyone would think "Damn shes hott! " . Boy that would be great. My biggest goal is to be able to fit in a size 11 in Hollister jeans (their largest size). As of now, I can button them but dang they are way to tight. I'm thinking when I hit 170, they will fit just perfectly. Tht will be one of the best days of my life.
So mainly i'm doing this to improve my self esteem, and feel more energetic and positive about myself. I want to look in the mirror and say "Damn I look good".

Hahah I know that sounds conceited but i'm sure everyone would/does do that. Well anyway, i'm going to go eat a HEALTHY breakfast and get around and go to the spa. Maybe go tanning?? Not so sure. And I don't really know how this thing works. Can you comment on peoples blogs? Send messages? I guess i'll find out So i'm definently going to be writing in this thing everyday! And snooping around others journals
