Coming out of my shell...I hope

My whole life I’ve struggled with my weight and I’ve probably tried every diet and gimic out there. As a teenager, I lost 60 pounds with old fashion diet/exercise and thought the struggle was finally over. YEAH RIGHT!!! Over the years, I gained that 60 pounds back plus an extra 20 which destroyed the little self confidence I had developed in my short time as a “skinny girl”. I’ve since discovered and accepted that I am a food addict and will need to fight my “addiction” everyday. Specifically, sweets are my weakness and I can devour a dozen cookies in a heartbeat…don’t judge me :-D

This year, I decided that I’m tired of setting the same old resolutions each year and watching my life pass by. So far, I lost almost 40 pounds on the HcG diet and have lost almost another 10 pounds since transitioning to the Atkins diet last month. I exercise 3-4 days a week with a Couch to 5k app and surprisingly…I LOVE IT! My goal is to jog a 10K at the end of this year and take a vacation to celebrate. For once in my life, I’m really motivated to lose the weight however I still struggle with my temptations.

I’m a single career lady with no kids but a wonderful Boston Terrier named Jada. Feel free to add me as a friend and I’ll do the same! Best of luck to you all!
