Let the adventure begin

So this is post number one. I started this as a way to try and keep track of my weight loss, starting with pictures (hopefully no one sees this) and then adding ways to keep myself motivated. I'm a freshman in college, and after losing nearly 30 pounds last year to be in good shape for college, I skyrocketed up as stress and social life took control of my overly controlled eating habits. Hopefully, because I don't really intend to advertise this to people, I can use this as a way to prove to myself that I can lose the weight once and for all.

Weight now: I'm guessing around 180-190 lbs
Goal Weight: 140 lbs

Note: I plan to do this solely through exercise and eating right, which will be a challenge as I just sprained my knee. I may also start posting motivational stuff here just to remind myself that it's been done before, so I can do it too.

Before I take and post the most embarrassing pictures I may ever take, I just need to remind myself of this:

And now for the moment I've been dreading since I had the idea to post this blog... The before pictures. I am planning to do these once a month until I get to where I want. 




See, my problem area is definitely my stomach. I also tried not to have my face in this, but I gave up. This is supposed to be embarrassing. I need to remind myself that this is the beginning of something new. The next time I post a photo, it'll be a comparison one and I'll post it on June 25th. Wish me luck <3
