I used to talk about people who were smaller than me...& say they wanted to lose weight! But I realized when you are used to being a certain size for pretty much all your life and then you plateau to a size you have never been...you began to get uncomfortable. 
I had a normal child hood, never had a problem w/ my weight. I was a cheerleader, participated in lots of activities in school...don't get me wrong I wasn't a social butterfly....but I wasn't 200lb. back then. I was thick...around a size 12-14 throughout Highschool; but whenever I began to pick up weight, I always excercised, & developed a way to maintain my weight.   I was the biggest girl out of all my cousins though ( I have a lot of girl cousins in my family)....But it didn't bother me b/c I always kept myself up and I liked being different, I have an eccentric personality! It wasn't until I had my son..my senior year in high school that my weight started picking up real fast and of course with the tribulations of life..LOL...so I went from a 14,16, 18 to now a 20. All of a sudden for the first time in my life my confidence began to get low, and I began to get self conscious of some of the things I wore. My son started to get older & I couldn't even take him outside to play, I just didn't want to look stupid running b/c I was so out of shape. I wanted to do something but my weight was in the way of me exercising, so I felt so socumbed to it. Everyone knows how I love to wear heels..I started bringing a pair of slides w/ me whenever I wore them...I realized that I was getting too big.  I came to a point where I was dressing for comfort b/c I was in pain wearing the things I love....that's when I finally made up my mind to do something.....here I am...on my way to a better, healthier, prettier me!
