My name is Laura, I am 21-years-old and have been struggling to maintain a healthy eating habit for about four years. I used to be very fit before I started University but since then I've discovered carbs, alcohol and a less-active lifestyle! Until two days ago, I have always thought I have wanted nothing more than to be 'slim.' I have continuously beaten myself up over this, tried all sorts of fad diets which I said I wouldn't ever do... It has become a part of my lifestyle. Right now... I want nothing more than to be rid of this old frame of mind as I've never been so stressed and low in my life! It is sad and relatively selfish that it has taken me this long to discover that you honestly can't enjoy any aspect of life if you aren't happy in yourself.
I don't just want to be 'slim' or 'slim for summer' ... 'summer body' meh meh meh ... I care less for these goals! I want to be healthy & fit for life. It starts now... Half way through 2012. No going back now... I am absolutely determined to change myself for life so I can love myself & enjoy the rest of my lovely life instead of having nervous breakdowns all the time about my appearance! My foot has been put down. In all seriousness of this, I have recently signed up for 'Tough Mudder' - An international 12-mile obstacle course which is said to be one of the hardest in the world. Challenge starts here, so lets begin this journey & hope it never ends!
