Hey everyone! I've decided that I'm at a point where I can maybe display a before and after picture (or 2) :D

Last summer I went to China to study abroad, and having just had foot surgery a month before, I was unable to exercise enough to counter balance the food I was taking in (I was there for 2.5mo). Needless to say I gained 10lbs and was devastated. I mean who gains weight in CHINA?! They're all so skinny! In my defense we had to go out for EVERY meal as we couldn't cook for ourselves, but still, 10lbs?! So, a little over 6 month later and 30lbs lighter, I am halfway to my goal of being 180 =)

    Awesome job! I lived in Japan for a few years and traveled back not too long ago so I know you probably had a blast! But most importantly, congratulations on the weight loss! 30 pounds is no small feat!
