Me at my heaviest - My big, fat story.
This post is very much inspired by the lovely Fabulous and Us, I'll give you the links below. For the past month or so, I have been feeling some what 'Meh' at myself and my weight. Some days I love having a belly and boobs and some days I hate having a belly and that I have fat, everywhere. Dear god I say boobs quite a lot, sorry.
To get me back on track, I looked at photos of me throughout my big, fat story. This blog was made for me to be truthful with everyone and myself. I hate talking about my weight and that number on the scales. Here we go.. At my heaviest I was 14 stone 4 pounds. My heaviest is now. I could say it is 14 stone 4 pounds of awesome or fun, but lets face it. That's bullshit.
Let me tell you about my weight loss story, which started 2 years ago. My little cousins where going to the gym and I got bribed into going, I hated it. I smelt, I was sweaty and most of all, I left the gym still a size 16 and not the size 10 I wanted to be. great! But going to the gym triggered something, I wanted to be thinner, healthier me. Most of all, I wanted to go back to school and tell that one boy in my class that I wasn't fat, I was sassy.
For 6 weeks, I went to the gym 3 times a week for 2 hours each time, I started Slimming World and lost 12 pounds in 5 weeks, I was so pleased. My main goal was to get size 12 school trousers, which I did.. Just 3 weeks after I started school.
During school my weight fluctuated and at some points I wanted to give up and just eat cake. my friends were amazing, truly amazing and I cannot thank them enough. Thank you Lisa for convincing me not to give up, thank you Zoe for asking every Friday how I did, thank you my form tutor for making sure I wasn't eating shit in form. I went to prom a slim size 12 and for once in my life I wore shorts and my thighs didn't even bother me.
Then I left School.
I lost my motivation, I lost my goal because prom had been. A cake there, a Costa here. These all added up to me putting on around 2 stone in 3 months. I then started college and no one knew my story, so I ate and ate and ate. I would start again and fail and start again and fail.
So what's it like at my heaviest? So I feel horrible? Disgusting?
I feel just like Anna, just now my boobs are bigger and my thighs are very close friends. But I feel better. I lost weight for some boy who called me fat and for some boy who I was madly in love with, who loves me just the same now I have more 'stuff'. Maybe not all boys wanted me to look like a VS model after all. Thank you for making me feel amazing every single day, You're not bad yourself!
I do want to loose weight, rather than looking at some scales, I want to look in a mirror and for one day to be totally happy with the picture I see. I want my belly to be flatter and my double chin to go away.
I want to be fitter, not thinner. I want to be happy, not hungry.
My message is to be happy, if that's 12 stone, 14 stone, a size 16 or being happy that you can swim more than 0.9 laps in a swimming pool! Don't let others tell you when to be 'weight happy' because that's a load of bollocks. Don't let others tell you when and when not to loose weight. Most of all, don't let some numbers on a machine determine how much you are worth.

P.s If you are loosing weight to be 'happier' in a relationship, please don't. This isn't just for girls, your partner should love you for you, not for the size of your clothes. I used to think that boys didn't like me because I was fat, but it's probably because I'm to cool for them!

11 Stone 12 pounds at Prom. My all time lightest!

15th June 2014, I was eating silly to shift the last of my weight and going crazy with exams. But, I look thin!
For 6 weeks, I went to the gym 3 times a week for 2 hours each time, I started Slimming World and lost 12 pounds in 5 weeks, I was so pleased. My main goal was to get size 12 school trousers, which I did.. Just 3 weeks after I started school.

This is me now, Fab and not 'obese'.
I do want to loose weight, rather than looking at some scales, I want to look in a mirror and for one day to be totally happy with the picture I see. I want my belly to be flatter and my double chin to go away.
I want to be fitter, not thinner. I want to be happy, not hungry.
I am terrified to publish this blog, because people are instantly going to judge me based on my weight. But I have the most amazing set of friends and the guy I'm speaking to makes every ex I've ever had seem like a learning curve. If I can pluck up the courage to tell everyone my weight and that I'm happy. You can tell your crush you like them or whatever!
