At at 15 i was 176 pounds. All my older, and even my younger sisters were tall, gorgeous, thin, with perfect brown hair. I was a fat, short, blonde chick. I was extremely unhappy in my body. I felt completely out of place in my family. my shortest sister was 5'5" how did i end up 3 inches shorter and 50 pounds heavier? I knew how. All the women in my family were fairly active and ate fairly decent diets. My diet was awful and my lifestyle was completely sedentary. I knew i had to change. I changed my diet completely, most recently this year i became a vegetarian. I started working out. First for only 30 minutes 3 to 5 times a week. When i arrived at college this fall i decided to up my work outs to an hour a day 5 to 6 days a week. Over all ive lost 68 pounds! and I went from hating my body to completely loving myself! i even got a tattoo that says acceptance on my right hip to show how i finally accept myself and love myself. It took me about 28 months to get to 108 pounds.
