Doing something for myself!

So, when i was a freshman in college, i liked to go run. Actually let me rephrase that, i hated running but i LOVED the way i felt when i was done. I used to try to run at least twice a week, to some that may not sound like that often, but it was good for me.  Anyway, I kind of got caught up in stuff and stopped running. Here lately I havent felt all that happy with myself. I have done alot of stuff to be proud of but i cant seem to be all that happy about it. I do not feel attractive, and I am sometimes ashamed of what i am. I realized that I need to do something for myself. It has been a big realization for  me, but I think I was actually depressed and I started to lose interst in things that mattered about me, including taking time to take care of me.  So to get around to what this blog is actually about, I have started to run again. I am starting to exercise and have been tyring to eat healthier.  I have only been at this for a week and a half but I am already starting to feel better about myself.  It helps that my boyfriend is supportive of me, he actually orderd salad with me and went jogging and walking with me. I guess I am writing this here to get support from others. Or maybe to just let it out. I am tired of being the nice girl, the one with the pretty smile,  and the one who can help others with their problems. I am ready to finally start working on my problems. So to those of you out there reading this just keep me in your thougths. It is going to be a hard process, but I think im ready to make it work. Also, anyone with inspirational thougths or stories let me know because im going to need all the support I can get!
