People call me....

Hill, Hillarious, Hillarity or even Hillary. You can call me whatever you want, including Unhealthy.

I ate a hamburger for the first time about a year ago. I liked it. I became addicted. Wendy's Jr. cheeseburgers and Steak n Shake Frisco melts were a special treat to me. While they tasted good, I was ignoring the fact that they were pissing off my entire system. That little 2 dollar whopper I ate a year ago, was the beginning of a very unhealthy weight gain. I wasn't eating fast food every day, maybe once a week or every other, yet it was enough to make my body hate me, and for me to hate myself. About 3 months ago I reached an all time high in my body weight. I have been able to take off 12 lbs by elminating Starbucks Chai and fast food, but I'm looking for something more. I'm going through a transformation right now, so exciting and so exhilarating. I have become a vegetarian for the first time in my life, soon to be vegan, and then completely raw!

I hope you enjoy reading my journey.
Love, Hillary

I have a hard time listening to my body, too. I use food as rewards too much and that has prevented me from continuing my weight loss (I lost 40 pounds a couple summers ago and through sophomore year).

I'm trying to pick small things to eliminate, too! I'm already starting to remove dairy products but also want to remove pasta and refined sugar, which are two of my "fixes."

I'm proud of you that you've already lost weight!!

My problem is that I eat very little through the week and then just inhale a ton of food on the weekends, usually at night. I don't really want to remove any specific food from my diet, but I would like to add more vegetables and fruit. Which is hard to do in a dorm.
