I feel like a different person. A reborn person. A healthier person. I feel like I'm cleaning out my system with all these vegtables. I'm excited for the future. So far Im 6 pounds lighter, and hopefully itll be more when I weigh myself on Sat. I look forward to weighing myself, which is so weird for me and Im sure for others who have struggled with their weight their whole lives. Lets take a little trip back to elementary school where I remember weighing about 140 pounds in 5th grade. I hated gym. I skipped gym, even in High School. Going to a big HS guarenteed a few thing. A swimming pool, and co-ed classes. Being forced to swim really should have been prohibited. It could have been a choice, but it wasn't. I took a "20" as a grade in 10th grade for gym that semester because I refused to swim. And the gym teachers at my school werent too nice about it either. They really had no sympathy for me, being overweight. They look at it as my fault. It partially was, but when your in HS or younger, your resources are limited. I didn't have the money for Nutrisystem in 10th grade or a gym membership. I really don't even have the money now but I knew my health was depending on it and I did what I had to to join. For a while I had given up on myself. Destined to be fat forever I'd eat huge bags of chips. I thought this is what I'm going to be for my whole life, or I'll change someday or I'm getting my girl issues so I can eat 3 bags of candy and chips. I hadnt found anything that ever worked for me. and now that I have Im excited. I cant wait to see how I look a year from now. Bye bye big butt -- hello hot new girl. ;)
