Hi everyone, this is Ling! First of all, it's been a joy ride browsing through each and everyone's journey and destination! It has made me very much MORE MOTIVATED *yay* and this time it should stay for a long time. I just turned 19 more than a week ago and am living in Singapore ;D
I'm a huge procrastinator, someone who really lacks determination and making through my weight loss would be something to prove against that. ^^
I've always been a little bigger than others since i were a little kid! But as usual, adults tend not to feel distaste for big toddlers and feed and cuddle them MORE. And i guess weight was never an issue for me through out my childhood. Everyone just keeps telling me i'm not FAT but big build (O_O) and so i didnt care about it.
I went into the school's TAF (trim and fit) system right from 9yrs old to 18! Ugh, to be labeled indiscriminately as a fat kid didnt help on the self esteem. And so being bigger than average for me meant that i didnt even interest myself in shopping for clothes (even now).
My besties (including my sister) are the 'skinnies' and shopping with them sometimes just feels awkward. Mostly, i browse silently through the clothes while they talk (to me) about what to choose and stuff. My mind usually goes into a blank and i became neutral to everything. Even a little frustrated however i love them =D
So, I've lost abt 3.2 lbs for the past few days: 141 to around 137.8 lbs.
Alright, i know 141 lbs for a girl that's 5'2 isnt a weight to start loosing but as an asian that weight is a little off chart. Clothes here in Singapore don't get big in sizes! One major reason for loosing weight is looking good (and of course keeping healthy) and getting clothes i love look good on me!
Another motivation comes from prom at the year end (mycrush'sgoing!)
