Hey everyone, I'm Kate, 20, and a health, fitness, nutrition, weight loss blogger! If you want my whole story go here: piecesinprogress.tumblr.com/abitabout me
In a nutshell: I struggled for 6 years with fighting against food (I spent those years going through phases of crash diets and returns to normal eating always ending up heavier than when I started). During that time I had a major knee injury and had reconstructive surgery that left me unable to exercise for years which only made the phases of diets worse. 6 months ago I broke down, I felt like I'd been on a diet for years and finally wanted to succeed. Here's a few pics from my before and afters (sorry, they have all my tumblr stuff on them). I blog because I want people to know that no matter how insurmountable what you're faced with seems with healthy eating and determination you CAN get through anything!

    I love what you say about patience, healthy eating and nutrition. I have tried so many diets, shakes, pills and everything you can think of. I have recently realised that crash dieting isn't good for my body, and I was sick of yo yo dieting. I needed to make changes that were permanent, and gradual. Thank you for your pics they are inspirational.
