Hello everyone! I just joined myfitnesspal, and I'm so excited to begin my journey to a healthier me! First off, let me tell you a little bit about myself. I'm Ashley. I'm 21 and live in Ohio. My husband and I have been together for almost 6 years and married for a little over 1. Together, we have a handsome 2 year old little boy, and a beautiful 5 month old baby girl. I'm currently a stay-at-home mom.
I've been overweight for as long as I can remember. It seems every month I'm trying to diet, but I've come to realize that diets DON'T work. I need to make this a LIFESTYLE change, and that's what I plan on doing. I am SICK of my body aching. I'm TIRED of hating what I see every time I look in the mirror. I have an amazing husband who tells me how much he loves me and how beautiful I am every day. But I still don't believe I am. I KNOW I can do this. I NEED to do this. I want to be a good role model for my children. I want to be able to run around and play with them and not get short of breath. I want to feel sexy and have self confidence. I want to FINALLY be the smaller girl that I feel has been hiding inside me all my life!
