I realized I never really introduced myself like I was supposed to in the forums.. So I guess anyone who reads my diary will know who I am.
My name is Sunny. I'll be 25 this year and I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to it or not. I'm still having trouble believing I'm in my 20s. About five years ago, I started gaining weight (while I was in college). I was eating what ever was around at the time, including late night runs to fast food, and not being nearly as active as I should have been. What can I say?! I studied a lot and I don't study well while running I guess.
Where the
weight loss began....
One day... I woke up and discovered I hated who I was. I didn't like who I had been dating for about a year. And I realized I was
fat (5'8" and 217lbs). So I cried. Thats what any sensible woman would do, right? The end of the relationship was the first step in losing weight. I stopped going out to eat all the time and started eating less. I also discovered I was less stressed. Ever date someone that totally stressed you out?! I'm sure I was depressed after the break-up, but not in a way that made me eat food. I just wasn't enjoying food like I did before. Eventually I got over it.
Now, my reason for losing weight is completely vein and not health based at all. I just want to look good! I guess maybe that contributes to mental health..
I don't remember what else I was supposed to mention in the original introduction. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask!
