Just something quick and easy :-)
A blog for every girl who needs to "Get it together!" I'm on a mission to rebuild my life from the ground up. New everything! New body. New hair. New Makeup. New clothes (vintage counts!). And most importantly: new self-esteem. * If you need to Get It Together too, please make yourself comfortable here.

Heavy Hitter
I am at the heaviest weight I've ever been in my life. It's odd how something as obvious as weight can creep up and surprise you. I was aware that I was gaining weight but I didn't think it was that much. But here I can with 60 plus pounds to lose.
But there are complications. Namely the eating disorders I have struggled with for over 10 years. I've had to literally not care about the food I eat in order not to obsess over my weight and diet and exercise in unhealthy ways.
So here I am: overweight. A few months ago, I would have said that this is the worst thing that could have happened to me. Now, I've come to terms with the weight. And while it is still uncomfortable for me (physically and emotionally), I no longer fear the weight.
I'm still me. Everything inside of me when I was thin is still there. So, I'm going to take the weight off now. I believe I have the mental capacity to do it the right way. So here goes. Monday, February 17th is D-day. I hope you join me.

Welcome Back Nails!
Hey!
So, I haven't posted anything for about 2 and a half months. It's been a lot of ups and downs but I'm still here. Thank you to all of the people that inquired about me via email and my Facebook page! That was so sweet.
In this time away, I've kind of just let everything all hang out. I haven't done my nails and didn't do a any consistent exercise. It wasn't laziness, just a heavy emotional time for me. But I'm back and I need to get back on track with getting it together!
I did my first nail design in all this time! Love how it came out. Tell me what you think!
