Time to kick the fat on its face!

Hey all,
M Niharika. Age-20 height-5'1" current weight- 183.6 pounds starting weight-191pounds. Lost around 7 pounds n still losing doing Shaun T's HipHop Abs. Currently on my 4th week.
Now my why..
Well, I have been overweight all my teenage, the lightest I remember myself was 115 pounds when I was in my 8th grade. That is like in 2005-06! N henceforth I have only been putting on weight! People commented n made me d butt of their jokes bt I was like blah I don't care! I have been a excellent student when it came to academics, so no1 could as such say anything to me on my face! Bt yes, I have seen people mocking me behind my back. By the time I reached grade10 all that stuffs finally started affecting me, I started getting depressed, bt still I didn't allow the depression to show. I thought I was too young to join a gym n too busy with my school life to exercise. Bt yet after my 10th I joiners gym, I had a 3 month vacation n in that I was regular with my diet n exercise. Bt later when I joined my 11th grade, I had to leave gumming again, I was a science major n my college n classes gave me no time! Whatever 20pounds I dropped in those 3 months I gained them back! N by the time I came to my12th grade I had gained even more than I lost! It was horrible. I never had many friends, people used to jus keep taunting, I was rejected everywhere. I got depressedn it affected my family life, I started fighting with my parents, vented out my depression at them, blamed them for my state. (now I know what a fool I was).
I later joined a medical school. N here was where I found more welcoming people, got a good bunch of friends, became social, d dressing started to come off, bt I still hadn't started exercising, so what pushed me? Well 2 months ago, I visited my relatives, n when I saw that i was being discriminated against my other cousins who r "thin" n I was being taunted , I felt humiliated, I could see that being so academicallly brilliant wasn't enough, being good hearted wasn't enough, no1 counts u in If u don't look good! My parents slowly began to get ashamed of going around with me, though they were supportive bt it showed. Now, even i started thinking bad about myself, I refused being clicked, I refused to dress up, go out, I used to feel what's d use? M not gonna look good anyway!
Then in this December I discovered MFP. I knew it was high time I needed to change forever. I had to get health n fitness into my life. I have to show people that I can look good!
So I began, since1st of jan I began logging my food n exercise here n I can proudly say I haven't missed a single day! N I was under my calorie goal every single day! I just wanna keep pushing more n more, I want to get to 110 pounds by the end of this year, n I know it's possible.
Ok I know this post has got very long! So il jus wind up by saying- I wanna lose weight coz I know that Beneath the layers of fat lies a drop dead gorgeous girl!
Cheers!
