I am that girl. That girl who once was embarrassed about my size. That girl who was embarrassed to workout infront of others because of the way I thought they would think of me. I was afraid of remarks, and fat comments. I am that girl who decided to ignore those thoughts, who decided to go for a walk, join the gym and workout for 2 hours a day on the elliptical and ark trainer, who decided to fix my eating. I am that girl who when i stepped on the scale and I was over 300LBS, I knew I had to do something about it. I am that girl who used to watch weight loss shows on TV of people that were 300lbs, and think, I am ok, I am only 250...... that is until i got to 300lbs! I am that girl who made a lifestyle change. I am that girl who was insecure, and still am in many ways. I am that girl who realized that it wouldnt come off over night, so i pushed through. I am that girl who succeeded through hard work and determination to lose 127 lbs. I am that girl who also found out that losing weight is not just about the weight, but it effects your whole self. I am that girl who never turned the heads of guys in a romantic type way until I lost weight, and I am that girl who had to learn a whole new realm when i lost weight in that area. I am that girl who learned many life lessons through losing weight. I am that girl who sees others like myself, and sees them starting their journey and wants to help them and encourage them. I am that girl who works out 5 days a week, and still maintains good eating habits so I dont put back on the weight I lost, admidst people telling me to loosen up a bit on that. I am that girl who knows that if you havent been there, and been overweight, then you have no idea what it is like, and the struggle it is to lose it, gain control over your mind set, and keep off the weight. I am just an ordinary girl. But, I am that girl. And I see a lot of me in people that I see. I see that girl. Everyone starts as that girl or that guy..... never be afraid to be that girl... cause, it is a start. When I was 29, I was that girl who weight 302lbs.........
