Hello World!

Hello World!

This blog is for nobody but myself! I am here to keep my thoughts out of my head and help manage all the twirls around in there, so welcome to my head! :) 

A couple of my close friends have turned to the world of blogging as a way to keep themselves motivated with their goals so I figured, hey if its good enough for them well then by all means it is good enough for me! I just turned 19 a few days and decided that 19 will be MY YEAR!! I am going to take control of my vices and overcome them. One of my biggest goals is to finally become healthy. My desire stems mostly from vanity, however after jumping on the bandwagon of The Biggest Loser I also now realize the importance of getting in control of your health before it is to late. So for the first time ever I am admitting that I weigh 160 pounds. There we go! It's now out there and I can't hide from it any more. More than anything I really just want to walk down the side of the pool when I am in Kiawah, South Carolina with all the other JAPs and feel like I belong, like I don't have to always grab a towel. Speaking of Kiawah-- I base most of my life purchases around the two weeks I spend in this paradise! The women and men who frequent this place are my heros. I envy everything about them, their perfect bodies that manage to tan perfectly, their ability to throw on the newest Lilly Pulitzer cover up and look like a model, I am envious of their perfect pearly whites and eyes that draw everybody in. I wish I had an accent and could be just like them, but alas I am plain ole Lauren Anne Dennis who just keeps trying and trying to emulate these heros. 

I think I am finally in control of my own weight destiny and I try to believe that once I drop the 40 pounds that I need to I may finally be able to hold my own. Don't get me wrong I enjoy the person I am, but at times I get down on myself and I also feel like there are some deep rooted issues that I have yet to take care of, but that is for another time. For now I am here to keep me accountable of my weight loss journey and in turn try to live my most COLORFUL LIFE!!!!

CHEERS!
