This is My [ssin's] story

Hello guys. It’s been a long time since I wrote anything on a Blog. So... I think I should start by telling you who I am and why I’m here. 

The name is Lucia, but you can call me Ssin. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been always struggling with MY WEIGHT. I would gain weight, loose weight, gain it and loose it again; but I’ve never been FIT. 

When I was a kid I wasn’t really FAT, I think I was just... “chubby”. 
But my Mom & Dad will always call me FAT and I think I ended up believing it. Don’t get me wrong; I don’t blame Mom & Dad for my weight, I know they just wanted the best for me, I just think a word like that can really have an impact on a child.

As I was growing up... my body started to put those extra kilos on the correct places, I mean I GOT BOOBS!! and big ones; so my body didn’t look as round anymore, but I was still carrying extra weight and I was still believing I was FAT. 
I would cover my body with the biggest sweatshirts I could find, baggy pants, baggy shirts, etc. The funny thing is... I think this was the best I’ve ever looked.

By the time I started high school I’d gained approximately 20 kilos (44 lbs), and after that... IT JUST GOT WORST. I wasn’t happy with that, I’d go on different diets and quit 2 weeks in, I’d join the GYM but never go, I’d loose 3 kilos (6 lbs), feel happy about myself and then gain them back DOUBLE. I was convinced I would always be FAT and I had learned to cope with it, you know, the usual stuff... awesome personality, being the funny best friend, caring for others because I wouldn’t care about myself, convincing myself that being single was a decision I HAD MADE.

This year three weeks before my 24th Birthday I decided I WASN’T GONNA LIVE ONE MORE YEAR LIKE THAT, and this time I MEAN IT.

[<--- This is me on my 24th BDay]

It’s been almost 2 months since I started eating healthy and one and a half months since I started training. I haven’t really lost much weight, 6.5 Kgs (14 lbs), but my body is starting to LOOK so much better. 


Anyway, long story short... Would you join me in this journey?
