Sometimes I feel "fat" Other times I dont. Its been a very emotional process for me. Growing up I always felt like the "Fat" girl in school. All my friends were size 0's and here I was a size 7. Looking back on that now, I should have been so happy with my body... But the way society put it in my mind, I could never be happy with my body... Not one roll, not one wrinkle, not one flaw.

I have always been very fit. I have a lot of muscle, I did competitive cheerleading for over 5 years, and loved it. It kept me fit. Then after I graduated I got into the serving industry. That kept me on my feet all day, a great way to loose weight, is walk a fast pace for hours, and be so sick of looking and smelling food, you didnt want to eat it!

Then, I got a desk job. (Play bad music here) Yeah, along with the "secretary spread" i.e. big butt; along came the feeling of wanting to eat all day. This was an awful downward spiral. I went from a happy 7 to a very unhappy 13. Just sitting down got uncomfortable, and I got into that state of mind, "oh well, im already fat, I will just eat what I want, and do nothing"

Something changed for me at the end of last year. Something clicked. I was going to get in the best physical shape of my life. And I wanted to feel healthier all the same.

So with cardio, a lot of tuna... and strength training... Ive lost over 30 pounds within months. Now its all about toning it up and keeping it off. I wish myself luck. Because its hard.

You don't need to wish yourself luck. You just need to make a lifestyle change back to being active. You can do it.

Looks like we're in the same area. I'm in the Carmichael area. Awesome job losing over 30lbs! Keep up the good work. Remember to make your workouts fun instead of a chore. That way you'll always be looking forward to doing it even when you don't feel like it. Overall, I think you'll do great. Take care.
