Hi there!

I'm 22 going on 23 & looking to find a fitness buddy. I'm not very motivated right now to go on a diet and workout and stuff. So I'm hoping to find one of you lucky people to help me with that. I'm looking to lose anywhere between 50-70lbs, and I have no idea what to do.

Here's some facts about me...
-Vegetarian for 5 years
-Smoking for about 6 years
-Work & constantly eat fast food (Taco Bell: I substitute beans for beef)
-I usually only eat at work cuz I'm always there & I get a discount & the food is delicious.
-All I drink is soda (clear soda, because for some reason I don't like dark soda)
-My entire family is overweight, except one of my sisters. She's always been the athletic one, and is also in the military. My dad is mainly overweight because he quit smoking about 2 years ago,...which is what I'M afraid of.
-I currently do not have a vehicle, and live with my dad, so he takes me back and forth to work. He works days, I work nights so we don't see much of each other and there's never any food in the house. Neither of us have time to go grocery shopping.
-I have a dog, and he's SO hyper! I want to take him out for walks, but my dad lives on a windy road in the middle of nowhere & people go WAY over the speed limit. (Reminder: I don't have a vehicle so I can't just go out and drive to the nearest park.)
-I don't like water.
-I'm on my feet all day at work.
-I don't like gyms, plus again, I don't have a vehicle to get there anyway.
-I don't like gateorade. I think it lacks taste.
-Not going to school, and don't really plan on it. I don't have my life figured out yet, and I don't know what I want to go to college for. So for right now I'm working and just trying to figure things out. I've been thinking about asking my local (and favorite) tattoo & piercing shop if they'll take me under for an apprenticeship, but we'll see how that goes cuz I don't have a vehicle and they're about 45 minutes away from me.
-I hate cooking! Not because I suck at it, but I just don't like doing it. I can cook for other people, no problem. But when it comes to cooking for myself, I can never figure out what I want and blah blah blah. But I love baking, which is weird...I can bake/decorate a cake like it's no ones business! But when it comes to cooking, you won't see me doing it! Lol

Here's a list of things I enjoy doing...
-Reading. I LOVE getting caught up in a great book series! I just finished reading the first two books in the series The Hunger Games, and I can't wait til the movie comes out March 23rd.
-Drawing. I have been drawing since I was very young. Even now I draw tattoos for people, or conjure up something for a birthday gift and whatnot.
-Partying/drinking. Okay, so I don't drink a LOT just occasionally! But it's a lot of fun.
-Tattoos & Piercings. Omg words cannot express how much I love body modifications! Currently I only have my septum pierced, I used to have my labret, snakebites, and my left nostril pierced. No tattoos YET but I've been working on some sketches. And I'm a perfectionist so it takes forEVER. But I DO know that I LOVE getting pierced!
-Photography. I do this on the side for friends and family. I even have a facebook page for it. But I don't charge, mainly because my camera is like 3-4 years old and I haven't installed photoshop on my computer. I have it in my possession, I'm just lazy. So instead I use facebook photo editing apps, and they're actually pretty good if you know what you're doing. I took my friends engagement pictures and everyone thought they were done by a professional.
-Texting. I'm pretty much always texting someone, unless I'm at work. I leave my phone on vibrate & check it when no one's looking but I don't respond unless it's like an emergency or something.
-Playing with my dog. I run around the house with him pretty much every day, he's like a little kid! I got him about a year ago from the pound and it was definitely love at first sight. Who says money can't buy love??
-Makeup. I love to do my makeup! I use all different shades, I go for different styles. I like to go all out! I watch youtube videos on make up tutorials, I have tons of makeup! Eyeshadow, eyeliner, eyeshadow brushes, eyebrow pencils, foundation, bronzer, lipgloss, everything. BUT I can't do other peoples makeup! Idk what's wrong with me!! Haha
-Hair. I can do almost anything with any hair type! Except my own of course. >_>

ANYWAY! I think that's enough banter about myself!!
If you're anything like me, or if you're just hoping to find a fitness buddy feel free to add me and/or send me a message! <3
