"Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out."
Hello! Thanks for stopping by.
Being overweight is nothing new to me. In fact, as early as about first grade, I was already one of the chubby kids. Not so fun. Almost as soon as I realised this, I knew that I wanted to get healthier.
Fast forward about 15 years. Still chubby as all get out.
So. What could possibly keep me from losing weight after all this time?

So. What could possibly keep me from losing weight after all this time?
Probably a combination of a few things: lack of motivation, being plain old lazy sometimes, and most of all, doubting myself! Although I've tried innumerable times to lose weight and get healthy, my lack of belief in myself has always stopped me. If I had one bad day, I would give up everything I'd done! I'd lose 10-15 pounds, then have a stagnant week of weight loss and just give up. But not anymore!
I KNOW I can do this!
It's already happening.
And there is NOTHING that is going to stop me!
because....
I'm DONE:
-being uncomfortable in everything I wear
-dreading pictures of myself
-being embarrassed to run with other people
-barely fitting into clothes at stores that cater to size 12 or less
-rejecting compliments like it's my job
-doubting myself!!
so, here are the facts.
