About 2 years ago, I started regularly running after dusk on the local bike path every night. It began to be something I truly enjoyed, and I would continuously challenge myself to do better each time. From that winter until around spring, I lost 20 lbs. It was so encouraging to have people at school, and my friends and family comment on how great I looked, and they were always baffled at the fact that I had only lost 20 lbs. I didn't even make any drastic changes to my diet either! I had already stopped drinking soda midway through high school, and my mother had been a part of weight watchers for several years so I already had grown to enjoy eating many healthier foods.

But now, 2 years later, I still weigh around the same weight. My friends all tell me that I don't need to lose weight, and that I look fine, but I know that I can do better.

Although I go to the gym frequently, I don't eat as healthy as I am capable of. I tend to binge every couple of days, which cancels out all of my good days and hard work put in at the gym. I know that I am capable of sticking to a clean eating lifestyle, but I have struggled to do so.

I am now in college, and let me tell you, living in a dorm with only one kitchen for the entire building with hundreds (or even more than a thousand) of college students makes it very difficult to stick to a clean diet. Next year I plan on living in an apartment, which will be much easier to cook and prepare my own food, but the real struggle is starting to eat clean NOW.

My goal is to look and feel confident in a bikini this summer. I don't care if that means I haven't lost a single pound. I just want to rid myself of being so self-conscious all the time, and to be truly happy in my own skin!
