Hi there:)
My name is Ajalee, I'm 25 years old and I live in Aiea, Hawaii (which is on Oahu, I work in Waikiki).
I've been a big girl all of my life and have struggled with my self esteem since before I can remember. I've been on diets and workouts on and off since I was 10 years old.
In August 2014, I had lost 30 pounds in a few months, but since then, I have gained back 47 pounds. I was too ashamed to weigh myself for the longest time, but I think my biggest mistake was thinking that I could finish doing the plan without my doctor. I slowly realized that staying motivated is much harder without support and someone to be accountable to.
On December 31st, I started a doctor monitored weight loss program, and I weighed in at 247 pounds. The diet starts off at 1,000 calories a day, high protein, and low carb/sugar, with 30-45 minutes of moderate cardio daily.
My goal is to lose 100 pounds in a year. Pleeeease help me, I'm determined not to make the same mistakes that I did the first time. I used to post about my weight loss on my personal fb and ig pages, but I feel like having friends that are on the same weight loss journey would really be the best support. I would love to get together with any locals in my area as well, I'm lacking workout buddies lol.
I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you!!!
