Hi girls,
I'm new here.
I've made a resolution to get back in shape. My body (and life) have completely fallen apart this last year thanks to being stalked and assaulted by a totally psycho guy who wanted a relationship with me. Since I've been to hell and back this last year I know I can do whatever it takes to get back in shape! I don't just want to be average, I want to be smokin' HOT!
I'm 32, I weigh 208 lbs. and I'm about 5'4. I have big boobs and long legs and I carry all my weight in my stomach and my boobs (thanks genetics!). Thanks to having skinny legs, a fairly pretty face and wearing black clothing- people would never guess I weigh this much. Usually they guess around 175 (not like that's good or anything but...). I can no longer live in denial and my health has deteriorated thanks to all this weight. I've had to start using a CPAP machine for sleep apnea and I feel terrible most of the time.
I know that I've gained much of this weight do to depression and anger but I do think I've also gained a lot of weight as some sort of psychological protection. When you are fat less people look at you. I'm treading into "scary territory" for me by getting back in shape. If any of you have had issues/experience with this I'd love to hear from you. I want to look good and feel good for myself but I'm afraid of being constantly hit on from guys. I know many people like the attention but I hate it!
With a willingness to do whatever it takes, how long do you think it would/could be before I reached 150? My total goal weight is somewhere around 130-140.
Any kinds words, motivation, recipes or whatever else you can offer will be greatly appreciated!!
Thank you!
