Reblog if you're in your 20's and are losing weight - I will follow you all*
I have to keep telling myself...
that I love myself.
that I’m beautiful.
that I’ll never give up.
that I can do this.
that I am strong.
because if I don’t….
no one will.

March 27, 2012: Ugly Numbers
I guess I never listed this before….
Age: 20
Sex: Female
Height: 5’4”
BMI: 32.6 (Obese Class 1)
Starting/Highest Weight (SW/HW): 215lbs
Current Weight (CW): 190lbs
Goal Weight 1 (GW1): 150lbs (by July 1st)
Goal Weight 2 (GW2): 130lbs (by my Birthday, Sept 6th)
Ultimate Goal Weight (UGW): 108lbs - 120lbs
If we think about this logically…someone with the height of 5’4” isn’t very big. They are kind of tiny (height wise) if you think about it. ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY POUNDS is a lot to be asking that tiny frame to carry. Eventually, one way or another…without change…that tiny frame will give in to the weight by heart disease, diabetes, stroke, or any other of the millions of conditions negatively affected my weight gain. Heart disease runs in my family, diabetes runs in my family…depression runs in my family. All of these factors are major motivation to lose weight. Every step I take to lose weight is in the right direction. Every Insanity workout I do, every piece of food I don’t eat….it’s all a matter of control. Do I have what it takes? Maybe not before, but I sure as hell do now.
