Better Late Than Never....Right?!
Hey guys! I'm Marina, the second half of this awsome twosome!
A long long time ago, I used to be a nationally ranked tennis player and in pretty decent shape. Fast forward 3 years, 3 knee surgeries and a break up later and I am in the worst shape of my life. We are both unhappy with our bodies and we decided to be proactive and do something about it. My birthday is coming up (June 17) and although I am excited to celebrate with my friends, I am held back by the one dilema that many of us face at one time or another: I have nothing to wear. I found a sparkly pink and black dress that I instantly fell in love with and although I am still planning to wear it, I have to wear it as a shirt since it doesn't cover my butt. The last few years are a blur, I somehow ballooned to 235 lbs (down from 245 a few months ago) and I don't recognize the athletic girl I used to be. My goal is to lose 100 lbs by my 23 birthday (June 2013) and play tennis once again.
I can't do it without your help and support. We would love any input and support we can get on this journey. We are very happy to have eachother but the more the merrier right?! Who's with me?!
Just as I thought that I was over my break-up, I found out that my ex is moving in with a new girlfriend. Have I been seeing anyone? Not so much. I want to be able to be confident once again and be comfortable enough with myself to start dating again. I decided that for the next year I am putting all my effort into getting my life back on track and my weight into a healthy range. I will be posting about all the hardships and rewarding experiences here along with my buddy. We would love to hear any of your weight loss success stories, anything really to keep us going because as we all know: LOSING WEIGHT SUCKS!!!! I look forward to sharing my weight loss journey with everyone and I hope that I can even inspire a few people. Before pics and goals to come! Stay tuned :)....
