So, two days after my last entry, I fell down a flight of stairs and sprained my ankle severely, and had a removable cast for 2 months.
Talk about a morale and self-esteem killer. It changed my life and my views on everything, going back to college on crutches. I didn't gain or lose any weight, but I did lose a lot of tone in my legs and stomach (except for my more dominant leg). I tried to do pike-ups on my bed since I couldn't get up off the floor easily from crutches, and that did help me...

I used to be almost 160 pounds BEFORE college. I know, my weightloss isn't of a grand scale, but it's made a huge difference. In high school, it was a challenge to be even 20 pounds overweight. The picture is me just 2 months ago, no makeup, looking goofy, after the gym. Entries after this will be MUCH shorter, simply on diet and exercise, I assure you...This is purely introductory.
Let's start with my family dynamic to back up my story: My mother is morbidly obese.
