Hi Everyone!
I have finally reached the lowest I have been in years on my weigh in today! So I thought I would share my success story with you guys. I have always been a chubby girl, but not too extreme. I always kept my weight around 150 pounds, and based on my height it was on the border line between normal and overweight (according to BMI). I was diagnosed with Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome while I was getting my physicals ready for college. To treat the disease, I started to take birth control pills the summer before College. Everyone's heard of freshman 15, but on top of taking birth control??? Oh god. I gained freshman 25!!!!!!! I kept taking birth control pills until my PCOS was treated, and during the summer of my Sophomore year, I officially began my weight-loss journey. I went from 175lbs-145lbs that summer and I felt great about myself. I slowly stopped dieting and the weight slowly crept up to 155 over 2 years. Two month ago, before my graduation, I decided to lose weight again, and as of today, I reached 140 pounds! The lowest I've ever been since like middle school! I am super duper excited and I hope to work hard until my goal of 125 pounds!!

Weight as of today!
