And since when did you lose a ton of weight? I thought you were just naturally thin?

It is SO hard. Believe me, I know, 100%. For me, it's all about rules, that I don't violate, PERIOD.

Naturally thin? Uh, NO. Never obese, but just always 30-40 lbs overweight, since about.......well, I guess in high school, it was 20lbs, then 30 in college, then SH*T!!!! And I fell in love, about 12 years ago, and lost it all. Got.heart.broken. Gained it back, over the course of several years.....

Experienced life changing epiphany, 1.5 years ago, and haven't looked back. I went from 34(TIGHT) jeans, to 27/28 jeans. I've had ONE fast food hamburger, in the past 1.5 years. Fast food, is GARBAGE in your system. Vegetables(I hate fruit) are your friend. You can basically fill yourself UP with vegetables(not deep fried vegetables!!!!) and not gain weight. I basically, no longer eat crap. Thank god I love salad.

Although, I will admit, that since winter hit, I've gained six lbs back, eating comfort food. But I'm going to lose it. Trust me. Because I can't express to you, how much the transformation I put myself through, has completely CHANGED my life. I'm no longer the chubby loser, standing in the corner. (that's a very embarrassing sentence to type, but that IS the truth) And when I say loser, I don't really mean that, but I can't tell you, how not feeling "unattractive", boosts your self-worth, and ego. I don't hit on ppl now, they hit on me. Swear to god. I vow to never be fat again.

Eating properly, is my religion.
