I started out weighing 236. I just got up one morning and decided that i wanted to change. I started losing weight at the beginning of November, 2011. I'm joining this site on Jan, 7 2012 at 199. I hope people will see my page and be inspired to lose weight like i have. Losing 37lbs has boosted up my confidence a lot. I got so tired of people saying that i was pretty for a "big girl". Well guess what? I've always been beautiful on the inside, just now my exterior is catching up. Whoever reads this, I wish you luck! :)
