My weight loss story

OK, I'm just another fish in the weight loss ocean. This may not be interesting to anyone, but I really think I need to register my progress, goals, failures, thoughts, etc.

I apologize in advance for the following:

- My bad English (I'm Spanish native),
- Boring you with my constant random thoughts,
- My terrible sense of humor,
- Anything else, 'cause I'm just SO annoying sometimes.

My Story:

I was a thin child, no weight problems. A little chubby cheeks, if you want but nothing else.

When I turned 11, I started to develop and getting fat.

I've never been huge, just fat.

I'm 160 cms. (aprox. 5'3") tall. And I think I was about 65 kgs. (aprox. 143 lbs.) at the age of 13, so I was clearly overweighted but not obese.

A couple of years later, I went to California for 1 and a half month on vacation I quickly won about 6 pounds and kept them until the age of 23.

Parenthesis: You Americans have so many junk food alternatives!!! I went to Mac Donalds. I ate one pint of icecream in one TV session! OMG how I ate!!!

I started going to the gym in College and eating bearly 600 calories a day, 1000 calories maximum. I was killing my self. I DO NOT recommend it!!! Finally I reached a weight of 106 pounds. I felt good. People congratulated me. But I returned to my old unhealthy habits and I gained back all of that weight and more.

And so on... I think since the age of 12 I've been alternating periods of dieting/exercising and out of control eating/sedentarism. I do not know how to balance.

Now I'm on a diet to get rid of the nearly 13 pounds I gained on my last trip to Brazil, and when I reach my goal, I will have to learn how to maintain that weight...
