Hello there. You can call me C. I’m a 23 year old college student and this fitblr shall document my personal journey towards physical fitness and healthy weight loss. I may have been born in the wrong century, but that won’t stop me from working to achieve my ideal body. SW: 250+ CW: 235! (12/30/12) GW1: 200 (my elbow tattoo) GW2: 180 (finish my tattoo sleeve) GW3: 170 (my knee tattoos) GW4: 160 (a fancy bowler hat) GW5: 150 (a pair of doc martin’s) UTW: 140 (a whole new wardrobe) I plan to lose at least 2lbs per week until I achieve my ultimate target weight. I do not believe in deprivation or starvation. Life is meant to be enjoyed fully, but that doesn’t mean carelessly. Everyone has a different body shape and every woman needs to love her curves. I just want people to see how beautiful they are rather than worry that no one will love them because their thighs don’t touch or their weight loss left a few stretch marks.
