I'm going to do it right this time

Hi, I'm Sarah. I've been overweight since I was 9 years old and it seems like I've always been on a diet. Since I graduated college in Dec 2010, I've been on the path to change my lifestyle instead.

I'm 26, from Detroit, and trying to figure my life out after college.

Go get your blood flowing, release some endorphins, and think about the kind of person you are. If you find yourself to be self-doubting, then start taking some risks to prove you’re not. If you find yourself to be insecure, then pursue a goal that makes you feel proud. And if you find yourself to be less than you ought to be, then study, read, run, practice, work, whatever you have to do to become the person you want to be. But change because you want to, not because some haters incepted you with a seed of worry that blossomed to a tree of self-destruction. I can tell you right now, you’re better than that.
