It’s Not About the Jelly
It’s crazy how much in the last year has changed. I actually committed myself to lose weight, I created a blog, and I actually almost have all A’s for my senior year of high school. Although, out of everything, I am more proud of losing weight than anything else. I have always hated my body.…
