I just started my journey on 4/1 and I myself and 5'4" and never weighed over 120 unless I was pregnant. Today I weight 165 and have about 30lbs to loose before my September vacation/late honeymoon to Jamaica. Your story inspired me and I am staring to get back into the exercise thing too. Thank you for sharing your story and pictures! Keep it up girl and you look great!!!

You are truly a beautiful woman and many people probably did skip to the pictures I know what you meant by taking less pictures of yourself. If I take any pics of myself they are ALL head shots I refuse to have a full body picture taken. What I see in the mirror conflicts with the imagine in the picture. Thank you for sharing your story and inspiring others that it is possible!

Wow!!! If that is what I could look like, I wouldnt have words for how happy I would be. I too, am a 14. I have tried losing weight solo many times and have failed for one reason or another. I too, was the girl who carried her weight well and most were shocked when I told them how much I weighed. I have lost 45lbs over the course of many years. But I always seem to be on a rollercoaster ride when it comes to gaining it back. My goal is to lose 30lbs. I am 5"8' and bigger boned but I have also learned that is not an excuse to stay this way. I want soooo badly to be comfortable in my own skin. I want to be able to sit down on the floor and not be constantly thinking about if my back/tummy is showing. I want to be able to wear tank tops and not have a fight with the mirror about my arms or wear a dress and not be overly concerned about how my legs look. I can dress myself right so I don't look huge but honestly I am sick of making decisions about what clothes I should by based on how much of my tummy will show or if the pants that I want will show that god awful muffin top if they don't sit exactly where there should.

So I have started using the MFP calorie counter for a couple of days now and I feel much better about what I am eating and how much. BUT, I am at stand still when it comes to exercise. I have three jobs, all pretty sedentary for the most part. I am a nanny for a 9 month old and secretary for two different companies. I am very busy in the evening so I figured I have to fit in the exercise in the morning. So I decided that I should try jogging .....I got up early got my head into it and as I started to jog, I realized I was running. I pulled back and continued fighting with my brains inability to accept the word 'jog'. So I got 2/10mile down the road and threw up. Lovely. It was discouraging but I know that I need to find something that works for me that I don't despise. In don't know if its fair or not to judge a one time jogging/running/throwing up episode and say its not for me but I think that's what I'm doing.

I am in search of finding something that I enjoy that I can see myself sticking with because I enjoy it. If its possible to enjoy working. Haha! And when I get discouraged I just think about my best friends wedding which is in August. They had to size me for a size 16 I almost cried, in fact, I did cry. When I got home, of course. I want to be be proud of the pictures that will be taken. I want to stand in front of everyone and be comfortable with how I look. And know that my determination and will power and some much needed advice and support helped me become who I feel like I am inside. I have always felt like there is a smaller me waiting to be free. I want her to be free or at least very much on her way by August. I'm not asking for perfection, just a much needed, long awaited change.

I am married. My husband loves me for who I am and what size I am now but he knows I'm not happy with me. So as supportively as he can he says that as long as I am doing it the healthy way he supports me 100% I know my self consciousness gets in the way sometimes but I do what I can to be happy. I just think that if I'm more comfortable being naked then things will be better there too.

I guess that is all for now. You have inspired me. And proven to me it is possible. So with this novel, I end with Thank You for sharing your story.

Amber
PS. You look incredible!!
