Today I am 119 pounds, although I'm not sure how accurate my scale is.  I feel like I should weigh more than that, especially since when I first weighed myself today it said I was 118.5 pounds.  But I zeroed it out and it said 119, so I guess I believe it.

  1. Hello, this is the first time that I have read your blog, and I find it interesting. I guess I'm just looking for someone to realate to. Its been pretty hard for me. I have been struggling with my weight for several years. Since I was about 15 yrs...long time to not have it together. Give me some tips on how you got to where you are.

  2. Hey! Thanks for your comment :D

    Anyway, how are your eating habits right now and what have you tried before (what worked/didn't work)? I lost most of my weight through dieting alone (barely any exercise). I typically would just restrict calories, but I am vegan as well which cuts out a lot of fat (the bad fats especially).

    Also take into account your daily schedule. Keep a piece of fruit with you for the day time, and tons and tons of water. I'm usually out at school/work all day so I don't have time to eat any more than a piece of fruit anyway. Then I get home and eat a tiny meal (in a small bowl so I can't possibly eat too much).

    Get back to me and I'll try to steer you toward more helpful tips geared toward your lifestyle. Hopefully it's helpful :)

  3. Thank you so much for the info. Right now, I am just eating one very small meal a day. I have to build the will power to stay out of the kitchen though. I just want to get this fat off so bad...I'm so affraid that I'll never be where I want to be. I will start off with your suggestions...thanks again = )

  4. You CAN get it off, you just need to tell yourself that! :) That's the only way you can stop eating--you must convince yourself that not eating will make you lose weight. And it will, it's all part of a cycle... If you don't think you'll lose the fat, you'll just end up eating (since starving isn't helping anyway).

    I believe that if I can do it, you can do it (and vice versa). So stay strong! <3
