back in december, i was up to 228 pounds. this is due to a medical disorder called PCOS. long and complicated, would rather not explain it. but I made it my new years resolution to lose weight. 1-for health reasons, 2-becuase i am a musical theatre major and people dont cast overweight girls. i was getting kinda depressed. i've actually done a number of things. i got a membership at my local YMCA and i love doing strength training and the aerobics machine. pilates and bellydancing are fun ways to get fit too! i have started limiting the bad carbohydrates like sugar, cookies, candy, sweets and stuff. and i eat more fiber, calcium, raw fruits and veggies. trust me. you'll get there! i'm already down to 180lbs. it is possible, just stick to it and everyting is possible email me at sweetstarr15@yahoo.com if you want to talk!
