recent photo of me (Sept. 18, 2009)





I took this for future reference so I can see how far I've come, but it's not fun for me to look at now!





This was me in college when I weighed around 165-170 lbs. I like how much healthier I looked then.



I have 6 pics in my gallery

Uncovering the real me

I'm at the very beginning of a long journey to lose weight and change my life for the better. I guess you could call me a yo-yo dieter: I've lost weight in the past (up to 40 pounds) and gained it all back. Even though I always lost weight the healthy way with no fad diets, I always went back to overeating and no exercise. I'm determined to never give up, though, and this time I want to make a concerted effort to change my relationship with food, so I don't feel the desire to binge eat.
