One Twenty Five

Oh hello there, fellow chubby-nista(?). Thank you for stopping by.   

So what do you need to know? Firstly, I don’t consider myself a ‘blogger,’  I started One Twenty Five because I became obsessed with creeping the Internet for weight loss stories/photos that would hopefully inspire me to shed my lard (aka I was looking for the magic word/recipe that would create an ah-ha moment for me).  

That never happened, so essentially in a self indulgent attempt, I created my own blog, to inspire myself everyday and to remind myself I’m worth it.

I’m simply a fat girl trying to that’s going to lose 65 pounds. I’m 5’4” and started on February 2nd, 2009 at 200 pounds.

I love all things fabulous and beautiful, notably high heels, summer dresses, large sunglasses, big hats, (aka things that suck to wear if you’re fat) photos, old movies, sudoku, earrings, good books, martini glasses, cupcakes and cookies. 

Horses, dogs and cowboy hats also hold a special place in my heart. As do friendly smiles, friends and family. 

I pretend to know about the stock market, while sitting in a tall sky rise building in Toronto’s financial district, but little do the men in suits know, I’m secretly plotting my escape.

I want to travel to the four corners of the world and live somewhere the temperature never graces a negative degree. Where there are mountains in the sky and I can smell the sea salt from my back porch. 

I have plans that would take ten life times to fulfill and all of them start with me being the best person I can be. 

I can do this. I will do this. Just watch me.
