Hi everyone! My name is Ashley, I'm 20 years old, and from Pennsylvania. I've had issues with my weight since I was about fourteen, that's when my body started changing and I couldn't eat anything I wanted anymore. In my teen years I basically consumed a lot of soda, junk food, pizza, I basically ate whatever I wanted. I never noticed how much weight I gained, and everyone apparently thought I looked 'great'. That is until I saw a picture of myself from the holidays which left me completely mortified!
I'm 5'4" and my highest weight was 172-173 when I was 16 (I was 5'3" at the time). That's when I started taking steps to living a healthier lifestyle, which hasn't been easy since. I wasn't dedicated enough, I would go on this clean eating kick and working out, but once I saw the pounds dropping, I'd just stop and go back to my old habits. Around this time last year, my lowest weight was 134. Ideally, I'd like to weigh less than that, but seeing that number on the scale again would be nice.
I'm turning 21 this summer and I can't stop picturing myself on the beach in a bikini or wearing a nice summer dress that doesn't cling to every ounce of fat on my body. I say this every year, that I'll be fit by summer, but this time I'm determined now more than ever!
My weaknesses: Italian food! Lasagna, tortellini. Carbs, anything savory and greasy.
Highest Weight: 173ish
Starting Weight: 149
Current Weight: 146
Goal Weight: 134
UGW: 120
