Hi everyone!

A little background on myself. As a kid, I was very spoiled and didn't know any better about eating. I loved junk food and didn't notice the impact it was having on my health and my body. I can confess that. I have always hated my body. I'm not terrifically overweight, I'm just more than a little curvaceous and highly self conscious about it. It's been my longtime dream to change it and I'm finally making it happen.

I make sure I work out several times a week and I also cook for myself. Cooking is so leisurely, and it's thrilling knowing exactly what you're putting into your food. I've lost a tiny bit of weight so far (I think I'm at my smallest!) but I still have a long way to go. I'm very worried I won't be able to do it, but god, I'm trying! My goal is happiness.

I want to do this not only for weight loss, but for my own health as well. I love eating well and I love exercising, and I really hope that I can meet my goal. Sometimes I feel heavily worried and discouraged, so I'd really love to meet some fellow people in a similar position to me!

Pleasure meeting you all x
