in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone! Yea I sorta dropped off the wagon around a month ago.
No excuses! I was working and just plain lazy. :P

I'm Malaysian, will be 18 this year, currently studying college(starts next week!).

Here are my body stats at the moment:

Height: Around 5'4 // 165cm
Weight: 178 pounds // 80.9kg
Bust: 42
Waist: 35
Hips: 42

(I've always wondered.. what body shape am I?)

I love eating (who doesn't?!) especially all types of bread-carbs!
I also tend to love my local food here, if you ever come to Malaysia, I swear you'll fall in love with the food here!
I love to eat spicy food too, I have no resistant to sambal whatsoever. Google it! :D

I've always been chubby/fat since young. I seem to be bigger then my peers, even in kindergarden. And during my early teens, I binged. ALOT. And plus, nobody said anything. So KABOOM it went out of control.

When I was in high school, I did have the thought of losing weight, but I never acted on it, I was pretty much all talk and I'll do it for the first week, and BAM, I'll use exams & homework as my excuse.

I never had much problems with my classmates teasing me or anything though, maybe they did behind my backs, but I wouldn't know really. I was a quiet girl on the outside but I had my own gang of friends which I get pretty loud-ish.

As for clothes! Since I started high school, I think I stopped wearing skirts/dresses. At all. Excluding the school uniform.
I think I only wore shorts/jeans/slacks.
I thought that I looked.. hideous in them.
So I stopped wearing them, but recently I've found a few skirts, no dresses though, in my cupboard, hidden down in a deep dark corner, and hopefully I can get some advice about how to match items for them, I think I'm pretty clueless. And I've been eyeing some dresses, but I'm not sure which one to get, as I have no idea what looks good on me.

Uh, that was a little out of topic, sorry! Back to main point, I want to add MYPals that are serious on what they are doing, and preferably that their diary is open.


I think I forgot my name!
I'm Ellie! Nice to meet everyone! (:

    Hey! My name's Andrea and I'm 5'3 and almost your exact measurements! :) I'm 150 and looking to get down to 125. I'm not new to MFP, but slacked off last month. Looking to get back into it again. I've had to weed out my friends list so I'm looking for more! Feel free to add me if you'd like; I'm on everyday.

    Being comfortable applies to dresses and skirts too! when you try one on, if you're not comfortable (or comfortable with how you look in it), don't wear it!
