Hey Y'all! I'm so excited that I found this forum! I've never had any weight issues until my last two pregnancies, I'm 5'3", 25, and always maintained 120 lbs. in highschool, it's been a struggle and challenge this last year to shed pounds and not let myself become discouraged or dissapointed..I'm the sort of person that wants to wake up and instantly be 50 lbs. lighter, lol..so impatient! I'm slightly eating less calories, and mostly working out, I do Tae Bo DVD's at home..I have to exercise, because even though I'm a vegetarian, I'm addicted to candy, especially chocolate! Sigh..so anyways..this is a before picture..
but this is a new year, I'm really going to try and not make any more excuses!

190 lbs. (This is so embarrasing!)




And these are In-Between Pics at 172 lbs. taken Christmas 2007.. (Not much difference!)


Another random after!


I'm just trying my best to be positive, stay healthy, and mostly motivated! Which is so difficult sometimes!! Happy New Years everyone! :)
 
You are very cute!

Thanks for sharing those pics and your story. I look forward to seeing your after pic. And btw, there is a big difference from what I can see on your face.

Good job!
 
Thank you so much! You're very kind, and it looks like you are doing very well too! Sometimes the biggest obstacle to me is looking in the mirror, not liking what I see, and then trying to numb the pain with food, which results in binging..which I know is terrible! So my resolution is to control my emotions and channel them in activities I enjoy, such as art, or dance..instead of swallowing them..I'm slowly making my goals..I used to model, but when I was put on a scale in a room full of girls and was told I was too heavy at 120 lbs. I just feel like a whale now!! But yes..*trying to think positive*..
 
This helps me.....I have a piece of paper on my fridge and on it I have written "Nothing tastes as good as being thin and healthy feels." :p It actually does help. And I have one of my skinny pics up besides it.

Being told your too fat at 120 is just ridiculous!

Stick at it. You will get there in the end with some determination and drive.

Remember that if you fall off the wagon one day, just hop right back on the next, don't just give up.
 
Very beautiful and welcome to the community.

120 = fat in the modeling world, huh.

Pitiful.
 
Thankyou so much! I was told I needed to weigh 95-110 lbs. if I wanted to keep modeling and be able to compete with all the other millions of girls out there..this was an agency in OKC..even if I did get there, my body is too "stretched" I'd be sure to be turned down because of my "battle wounds" from having babies..anything you can do for those marks? I tried cocoa butter lotion and that did me really nothing except give me baby smooth skin, lol..oh well, now that I'm a momma I'm probably too old and I probably should focus on another dream..:-/
