/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

It did at first. I was never fat, but I was chubby and it didnt look like my weight was going anywhere but up.

Been going to cons since I was 13 but not till I joined cgl two years ago did weight really feel like an issue to me. It was a combination of wanting to look good in photos like the girls on cgl, and talking to my doctor. I found out I have PCOS. Which means fuck I really cant afford to let my eating habits go since I'm already at risk for early onset type 2 diabetes as well as blood pressure and cholesterol problems. And in fact I was pre diabetic for a while.

So I got motivated to get my shit together for both aesthetic and health reasons. Took about half a years break from /cgl/, as much as I love yall didnt have the time with starting university. But now easing my way back into it and keeping up going to the gym several times a week and strictly watching my diet. But I have a mentality of /fit/ not thin. I no longer really care what I look like, so long as I feel healthy and my body reflects that. Though I find it's incredibly hard to be fit and not have a good body to. I'm not all the way there yet, but my healths certainly improved so I'm happy with myself for that at least.
