And so starts the battle.

Hey there.

Ever since high school, my friend and I have kept saying, "ohh, we'll just lose the weight later," "we gotta lose weight," "we can start tomorrow," and the like. But, finally, I think it's time to finally own up and take control. I've weighed around the same weight all through high school, and even now, three years after I graduated. And at the age 21, I finally feel like I have enough motivation and determination to lose this weight and get down to an appropriate size. The size I've only dreamed of fitting into.

I bought I bikini a few days ago in a size small. So, I have to do it. For everything I want, everything I've dreamed of, I'm going to drop these pounds! And when I'm sitting on the beach in my cute bikini or at the public pool flirting with someone who's eye I caught, I won't miss eating at all. I won't miss all those trips to McDonalds or Denny's. Because I'll have the confidence and self-satisfaction that I did it.

And I know everyone else on this site can do it too. So, wish me luck! And good luck to all of you as well.
