About myself

 

A bit about myself: My name is Yer Vue. I'm 25 years old. I’ve always been the athletic girl, who was in shape growing up. After I graduated from high school, I weigh 117 pounds. I got married and ended up working full time right afterwards. My job consists of me sitting for 8 hours staring at a computer screen. At my job we have a gym, but I didn’t really take advantage of it to the full potential. I thought to myself that I was already skinny and didn’t care. Over the next course of the year, I somehow gained 20 pounds. I weigh a little over 150. I was unhappy, my clothes didn’t fit me anymore. I went from a pants size 3 to pants size 11. I felt like I was a monster. I was curious as to why I gain so much pound in that year. I went in for an appointment for a physical exam. I found out that I have Hypothyroid. Hypothyroid is a condition in which your thyroid gland doesn't produce enough of certain important hormones. It causes fatigue, depression, weight changes, and muscle or joint pain. My doctor told me this was probably one reason why I had gain weight so fast. I was morbid and sad. I was put on medication and will be on medication for life. After this I shortly got pregnant and had a baby girl. 6 months after that I found out that I was pregnant again. I didn’t even get a chance to really lose any baby weight off from the first baby. I stayed at 150 after my two kids. . I didn’t go out after the babies due to a lack of confidence, I kept making excuses that I didn’t have time. I wanted to look good again and feel good about myself so I decided that it was time I stop making excuses. I know I need to make changes and I'm motivated to do so, just need some extra push sometimes. On April 8^th,  2013, I went on this hardcore exercise and healthy eating spree and I went down from 150 to 130 in a matter of months. I haven't ever felt healthier than I did at that time. Right now I weigh 126 pounds and I want to keep going to reach my goal. After reaching my goal I want to stop and tone out my body. I want to be healthy and fit because I know once you get older it’s even harder. I want to wake up and don’t have to go through my entire closet to find something to fit me. Right now I’ve never felt healthier, I’m using my gym at work to the full potential and also using Snap fitness as well. A huge part of losing weight is having confidence in one self and realize that it is not going to happen overnight.  Never give up is my goal in life.  I know it will work out for the best.
