My name is Emily, and I'm ready to get things started 
Anyone feel free to add me, and advice is greatly appreciated.
I've always been bigger my whole life, and I've decided it's finally time for a change.
I want to get healthy. I want to get fit. I want to feel good in my own body.
I've never really felt comfortable in my own skin, and I'd like to change that.
One of my big motivations is that I'd like to join the military within the next few years.
So here I am

The more fit you become, the more confident you'll become! Of course, I'm a little too confident now and got my *kitten* handed to me by a guy last night. That just means I need to work harder!0

Would love to add you. I have been heavy all my life, too. Holding out hope for what I previously deemed impossible. :-)0
