Last year I did a LOT of stress eating.

It was rough and I gained a good 25 pounds and got what I like to call.... very soft.
I woke up one day in January... Saw myself in my underwear and I cried. a LOT. And I decided, no. Absolutely not. Eff that. And I have been working out consistently since then. I've lost ten pounds and have been turning everything else into muscle. In just three months I feel better than I have in years, I'm starting to love myself and how I look again and honestly I am SO FREAKING PROUD of myself. This is the longest I have ever worked out and kept up with my efforts and I couldn't be happier!
