Hello! My name is Ellie and I'm 19 years old. I weigh 190 pounds and really want to become healthier and lose inches. A lot of people look at me and don't think I'm over weight, but I really am. I have a lot of my weight in my butt and thighs. I really hope that this site will help me lose the weight because I want to fit into all different types of clothes again and be happier.

I very much in love with my boyfriend and he has been eating healthy and working out every single day. And he's starting to look even more amazing then before. He is my inspiration. I want him to be able to carry me and we can go to the beach confidiently in our swim suits. I just want him to be proud of me because of this whole experience. :)

I currently work at Panera Bread and I kind of blame them for giving me their 50% discount on the yummy food. Haha, it really does have a lot of calories and I don't want to keep adding weight to my body.

Along with watching what I eat and exercising I've been trying to read as many books as I can possibly get a hold of. It's a lot of fun and I have no idea why I stopped reading books. I guess I just want to make myself a well-rounded person and hopefully some of my problems will be resolved because of this start.
