My Past, My Future, My Self

My name is Marissa and I'm a sophomore in high school. I've been struggling with self-confidence issues for as long as I can remember. Thinking back, I've always had a problem with my body and my weight, and I think there's no better time than now to get a handle on things (or to get rid of my love handles!)

Anyway, recently I feel as if my life is spiraling out of control, starting and ending with my weight. I should also tell you that I have been involved in some bad eating behaviors in the past, which don't help my situation. But I'm trying to get myself out of that and move on to a much healthier (and much hotter) me.

My overall goal is to be self assured and happy with who I am; body and all. But weight-wise, I'd like to lose about 15 lbs. I have tried many diets, fads, fasts, and exercise programs in the past, but my lack of commitment has kept me from getting anywhere. (At most, I've lost 10 lbs, then gained everything back) I feel that if I can do this, I can do anything, and I will feel so much better once I'm in shape.

From this site, I hope to make new friends, who are going through exactly what I am. I want to give and recieve support. I want to have an inspiring story. I want to succeed and help others to do the same. So, that's it. To sum it up, I'm trying to finally become the person that I've always wanted to be.

awww...thats a lovely post hun. With that attitude you'll succeed! Just read that post whenever you have a hard day.

Have you thought much about the type of "diet" or lifestyle change your intrested in?? I"m a huge fan of the 1200 cal. diet. Ican eat whatever I want as long as I don't go over 1200 cals. Of course, I try to make healthy choices, but I can fit in some beloved chocolate from time to time.

You might want to start a diary, it helps to get the support you need.

Let me know if you have any questions!
