hi!
My name is Angela and I'm a 24-year-old female living in Chicago. My weight has yo-yoed all my life. I dealt with an eating disorder through most of high school and the first year of college. I'm proud to say that I've recovered, but I ended up packing on 50 pounds during the long recovery process.
My highest weight was 188. Currently at 170. My goal is to lose two pounds a week, eventually ending up around 140. Strength and agility are more important to me than the numbers on the scale, though.
Cycling is my main mode of transportation, so that helps a lot. I also practice with my roller derby team three times a week, which is also an incredible workout. My big weaknesses are beer and Mexican food. Mmmmmm.
Be my friend!
