Here we go...

I am roughly 5'5, 103 lbs. I used to weigh close to 120- right about 118- but, I went through a very traumatic, stressful, and just plain terrible year of my life, and well, here I am, down 15ish pounds. I was weighing in at 100 pounds about a week ago, but I realized that I was just way to skinny for my height, and I wasn't comfortable with my weight. I've always struggled with my weight, ever since I was a little kid. I was a nervous kid and had a weird relationship with food- half the time, I wanted nothing to do with it. And as I started going through this rough time in my life, I kind of fell back on old habits. I was so nervous, depressed, and stressed that I forgot to eat, but always remembered to smoke cigarettes- averaging anywhere from a half a pack to a pack a day. Thus, I lost close to 20 pounds- pounds I did NOT need to lose. One day I decided I was going to gain back the weight, cut out the smokes, and get back to my active lifestyle. So here I am, about one week into my journey-- no cigarettes, double the calories I was taking in, and up 3 pounds already! Yippee!
