I was never fat per say. I was tall and curvy.
I am still tall and curvy. But I had excess weight that made me depressed and very self conscious.
Today I have been working out pretty consistantly. And I am so happy with the results. I was a drama kid in High School. Never was into sports, couldn’t play them if my life depended on it. I had taken up running in the past but didn’t desire to do it. I became this depressed person, bringing myself down.
After working out, I started being complimented alot. I will get people saying I look strong, asking if I’m an athlete, bringing up workouts they’ve been doing. IT’S FREAKING AWESOME!
NEVER did I think this would happen. The heavy drama kid is laid to rest.
Bring on the strength!
