From elementary school through my entire high school life, I was always playing sports... soccer... basketball... volleyball... and was in the best shape of my life. Many people believe it's easier for me to lose the weight now since I "wasn't always fat" but I feel like that's what makes it harder for me. I was in the best shape of my life eating anything but with my 2-hour long practices, 6 days a week... almost anyone can eat anything and still be in great shape.
Anyway, once college hit I stopped being active - completely! Not even walking! - and the freedom of eating anything, anytime, anywhere caught up with me. Working two, sometimes three, part-time jobs and going to school full-time made my life B.U.S.Y! Eating out and grabbing fast-food became a part of my daily routine and before I knew it...
June 2008: Who let me walk out of the house wearing this?!
After almost 10 years of being overweight, I've had enough!
