Authenticity & Word Vomit (A Re-Introduction)

I struggle with being authentic on tumblr. I know…I am just one voice among thousands upon thousands but because some people I know IRL know about this tumblr and who I am, I struggle with revealing just how much I struggle with weight and food and all of this shit…and the fact that yes, I swear to make a point sometimes…this is who I am. 

I am done with being too nice. I am done with pretending to be this perfect healthy person. I am so done with trying to tailor my image into this squeaky clean I-don't-even-know what.

So let's start again.

Hi, my name is Serena. I really like magical realism. I sometimes believe I am a fairy-mermaid-princess. I like to draw. I like food, a lot. I am mostly vegetarian. Sometimes I eat fish. I'm not happy about this. I love the taste of cheese. I try not to eat it. I try to avoid wheat and gluten. Sometimes I forget that I have actual reasons behind why I do what I do. 

I am 5'3". I am not actually fat, but I want to lose weight. I am 21 years old. I have never had a real boyfriend. I want to be a size 0. I'm probably a size 4 or 6 right now. I haven't weighed myself in about half a year. I struggle with compulsive over-eating of sorts. 

I used to hate working out, but now I  really enjoy yoga, dance and many other forms of exercise. I have many, many fitness DVDs. I also like doing Youtube videos (like Blogilates and Tara Stiles yoga). 

From now on I will try to be as authentic as possible with you guys. Because I believe the tumblr weightless and fitness communities can be positive places for people struggling with weight and fitness goals to raise each other up. 

I'm not going to talk about every trial and tribulation in my life, but I will also stop trying to hide shit. This is who I am. Yes I am trying to eat clean, but I am also trying to lose weight. I am imperfect. And sometimes I get scared. I have to admit that to myself before I can really allow myself to grow.

Check-ins

I may start doing monthly check-ins here on tumblr. Like a big post recapping my month's progress with eating healthy and working out....struggles and successes...sort of as a way to keep myself motivated, but also hopefully to inspire others as well. It'd be really cool if it turned into a community movement sort of thing...where we all helped keep each other on track on a more personal level.

I'd also be posting a calendar of my workout plans/ what I actually end up doing and recapping the types of things I've been eating.

Does this sound interesting to any of you?

Let me know. :)

I do this type of thing for myself, already, anyway, so I thought, why not share it?
