So, here we go.

Hello, blog. Hello, reader.
I'm starting this blog hoping to inspire or assist those out there facing the same issues as me. Currently, apart from all the anxietydepressionblahblahblah, I am going through some weird things with food. I don't believe I am anorexic because I can on occasion quit counting calories for a meal, though I generally add them up after. But I think my food issues are too tiny to be a true disorder, and I hardly wish to undermine the seriousness of anorexia by labeling my ittybitty dieting problems with it. I began dieting a little over six months ago, though I've been overweight for nearly a decade (in my early twenties here). During that time, I had told myself I was dieting, I'd try things out for a week at most and then forget, or go to the gym for a month or so but never really push myself. I truly believed nothing worked, but only because I never truly tried. So last year, I truly tried. I calculated how many calories were necessary for a woman of my weight, height, age and lifestyle, found a good calorie deficit, and slowly lowered that about each month. I am now at 900 calories a day, max. An unhealthy number. But between then and now I went from 180 to about 120 lbs. With these results I don't care how unhealthy I am, I am just truly dying to be thin, for once in my adult life to be petite and delicate. My current goal is to be 100 lbs, but I don't know where it will stop. All I know is I'm about middling in my dieting endeavor.
Anyhow, this is basically what I will be talking about, with bits of my life, diet and exercise plans and tips and low cal recipes sprinkled in. I hope nothing here offends those kind enough to read my thoughts, I truly don't want to offend anyone.
