But I Still Feel Skinny
Posted by: Shannon Buck on: June 16, 2011
No, I have not always been overweight. I used to be skinny. I was 110 pounds at age 16, and 105 when I found out I was pregnant with my second daughter. This was not the weight that I should have been, and was very unhealthy. I should have been closer to 130 pounds. My [...]

Me and This Journal
Good day all! My name is Shannon Buck. I hail from a small town in Maine, where I am blessed to have the opportunity to work from home as a freelance writer. I am mom to Skye and Zowie, my wonderfully supportive daughters.
I am not happy with my appearance. I want to get back into at least a large.
When I first started losing weight, I weighed in at 279 pounds and wore a size 3x. I am now at a size 2x and, while I have accomplished much, I have gone backwards somewhat. Not too badly, as I am still wearing a size 2x, along with with some 1x.
This blog is an effort to help keep me on track with my fitness goals. My main goal is not necessarily weight-loss, but overall fitness, nutrition and health. I want to not only look better, but feel better as well.
Join me while I continue with my journey.
Warmest Wishes and Brightest Blessings,
Shannon L. Buck
