Big Fat Skinny Girl

Hello, and welcome to my blog! The first post is always the hardest to write, isn't it? There are so many bases that need covering. But the best place to start seems to be with the title - Big Fat Skinny Girl. That's me. That's how I feel about myself.

A long, long time ago I weighed about 30 lbs more, which was a lot for my very small frame. Especially since it was all trapped right around my middle - stomach and thighs. I lost those 30 lbs doing a low carb diet, until one day when my weight loss just stopped. Unfortunately, that plateau was about 10 lbs higher than where I wanted it to be.

I've spent about 3 years obsessing over those evil 10 lbs, trying every combination of diet and exercise around. This blog is my attempt to chronicle some of those struggles - what works and what doesn't so that I can have a record of my progress and to maybe get/give advice from others battling the last weight loss hurdle.

Even though I know a lot of people would say I should just be happy with my figure and accept myself for where I am, I can't. I'm a perfectionist. And until those last 10 lbs are gone I will always consider myself a Big, Fat, Skinny Girl.
