I would say that my self-esteem is higher than average, but I still have hangups and I know everyone does. Just look at celebs these days- so many people look up to them but more and more we are seeing just how insecure they are- from drugs, to extreme diets, to hasty romances!

Im very slim (some say skinny but i dont like that term because i DO have curves!! and i love them) and have always had a high metabolism so I have never had to workout to keep my figure. Recently I have noticed I have become a little less 'toned', so Im definitely going to start going to something like yoga soon. I did it a few times in the summer, but since I am a student and yoga here costs as much as $16/drop in class, I can't really afford it.

Anyways, Dro, about losing the most weight in the first week, I have heard that it's "water weight"... basically those 6 pounds were from being bloated (ie water retention) and for some reason or another those are the first pounds to be dropped.
