my stats
i’m a 23 year old gal from the midwest who’d rather define my weight than accept it’s definition of me.
my starting weight was 157, i currently weigh 151 lbs and my goal weight is 115. that’s 36 lbs. of extra baggage i can’t wait to let loose.
my loves
i like to read, write short stories and poetry, sew, and relax outdoors. i graduated with a b.a. in english, someday i’d like to teach.
i collect vintage clothing, LPs, books, and trashed treasures.
i like drawing, visiting art museums, hiking, ebaying, wearing huge sunglasses, and prancing through dew-soaked fields.
some of my favorite authors are: tolkien, vonnegut, dostoevsky, austen, dickens, greene and poe. my favorite poets are cummings and ginsberg.
some of my favorite music artists are: pink floyd, syd barrett, the beatles, john denver, feist, the arcade fire, tool, radiohead, ccr, joan baez, david bowie, and bob dylan.
my reasons
my weight was stable at 115 through high school. i had always been thin and ate whatever i wanted. when i started college i got up around 130 which didn’t bother me but the scale kept climbing. recently i weighed in at 157 which was a shocker and a wake-up call. time to tone up.
i am doing this for me and no one else.
i want to feel better in my own skin and in my own clothes.
i want to be able to wear those killer hot leather pants again.
i want to fit into all those vintage dresses i bought.
i want to be a healthier and happier me!
