I think the problem with me is that I'm an ex dancer turned web designer. Yes, going from dancing all day to sitting on my butt has really made it grow! lol. I also use to be a lot more active.
I got into a slump about 5 years ago and slowly have put on 50 lbs. I got on a major diet kick about 3 years ago, and lost 18lbs, and 22 inches (all around) and then decided to get a breast augmentation, and then after my surgery I couldn't exercise for 2 months, so I lost my drive, and gained it back, plus more!
I hate that I can't put on whatever I want anymore and look good. I hate that I look in the mirror and don't see myself anymore! I'm 32 years old and I refuse to be this way while I'm still young! I don't go out anymore, I am a total homebody!
I became very depressed last September, and I'm on Wellbutrin. It hasn't made me gain any weight. And the reputation the pill has, says it doesn't, which is good But it has worked for me very well. But I still have my moments, which of course, I take out by over eating. Blah!
I lost all my girlfriends a couple of years ago due to them moving out of state, or just them being bad friends and cutting them out of my life. So now, since I stay home all the time, I don't make any new friends! So add lonliness to my cup, and that's a recipe for over-eating! With the thoughts each day in my head ---> "I'll just start my diet tomorrow"!! Not good!
So I decided that I know I can do it, I did it before, and I'm GOING TO DO IT AGAIN! I have NO excuse! People do it every day! I am going for the 1500 calorie diet with a focus on low carbs, no white flour carbs, and no sugar (except for fruit) - And I have a gym here at my apts and a lap pool, so I'll be exercising. I'm so upset at myself for letting myself get this way that I'm determined to get this fat off my a$$ once and for all!
I started out at 210 (I'm 5'7) and I'm down to 206. My goal is 160 - I'm honestly a big boned girl - so if I get below 150 I look funny.
Wish me luck everyone! I need support in the worst way! I need motivation! Thank you all for taking the time to read my story! Woo-hoo! The new me is only 46lbs away!!!!!!
