How I got here »

by Michelle on February 8th, 2010

I wasn’t always fat. But that’s what everyone says. Looking back I can’t quite see when I went from skinny to average to athletic to curvy to chunky to fat. But now I think that journey began the summer before high school. When even though I was skinny, I still didn’t date like my friends did.  I don’t know if it was my crap self esteem or I just got lazy, but after that I just started adding on weight.

 However I never really let it bother me until now. I traveled through Europe and kept up with my skinny friends, I could run and dance without getting out of breath and amazingly for a fat girl I’m pretty flexible.  But then in the last few months my sister got engaged, I broke up with a guy,  and I noticed my 10 year high school reunion was coming up.

Now I could care less what some of the people from high school think of me, but the thought of looking the way I do now in my sisters wedding pictures is what scares me. So I’m going to try to lose some weight. I haven’t decided if I’m looking to move to the chunky stage or in to the  curvy stage but I need to do something while I’m still fairly young and haven’t done permanent damage to my health.

So this will be kind of a food diary/support system for me. I will be monitoring post’s because I don’t need negative feed-back but I will appreciate any support and advice. I also won’t be posting my weight, I will post pounds gained or lost though.
