Hey ya'll. My name is Ashley. I just joined this site last night and am just starting to poke around. I downloaded the application on my phone so that I can keep track of my food on the go, since it seems that is what I am constantly doing.
I am a 24 year old mommy and wife who is enrolled in nursing school. I do photography on the side. It's my hobby and a great part of my life that lets me create.
I have set my weight loss goal to 73 lbs. When I was pregnant with my son I gained alot of weight. Unfortunately I had delusions of granduer when it came to shedding the pounds afterward. Apparently I thought they would just melt away. I, however, am not so lucky. So here I am...trying to get back to pre-pregnancy weight.
As if I didn't have enough dilema with just losing nearly 100 lbs, I am also a recovering anorexic. Which makes the journey that much harder. The weight gain in and of itself almost killed me, but thankfully I have a strong support system in my husband and family. And a new inspiration to stay healthy and lose the weight in a good way: my son.
I know it is going to be a struggle. But you just got to take it one day at a time.
