Ht. 5'6", Start: 185 lb, Today: 185 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 155 lb - For as long as I can remember, I've always felt self conscious and uncomfortable with how I look. I've been overweight since about 3rd grade. I've always sort of been in denial because when I look in the mirror I always think I don't look that big, but when I'd see myself in pictures I'd see what I really look like. I don't hate exercising but it's hard for me to stop eating. I want to finally be able to buy clothes and look good in them, and be able to wear a bikini.. which skinny girls take for granted. I'm hoping that with support from others I can finally turn my life around. Anyone feel free to talk to me, I'd love to!
