Wow! Don't remember the last time I was on here. . . A lot has happen the last few months and because of it I had to put off cosplay. I allowed cosplay to over-run my life once again and had to realize what was more important to me. It got to the point that all I ever talked about was cosplay and all I wanted to do was cosplay. Sometimes it got to the point I wanted to sacrifice so much for it, but I was only losing sight of my real goals. In a way, I made my losing weight journey surrounded by cosplay - - That was unfair of me. I truly wanted to lose weight for myself, but cosplay was the reason it would become so hard at times. Not anymore though. . . I'm going to continue to improve myself. That's why I haven't done anything new for quite sometime. I'm still working on 'Judgment Kayle' because of the expenses and time it has been completed, but that'll soon change for ALA.
Right now I'm really focused on my education. I'm applying to universities and making sure I pass my math class! So it's been hectic for me, but once it settles down, I'll be back on the sewing bandwagon. I just needed to realize what was more important and that cosplay is a hobby, not my life. I don't want to lose the people I love because of cosplay. I want to enjoy the hobby, take my time with it, enjoy it! My education is important and as much as I love cosplay - - I need to remember the enjoyment I have when I sew, not the stress from pushing everything to the last minute and making it harder on myself and others.
So here is to a better me. Can't wait for ALA! Can't wait for the new improved me. I've lost weight and I feel better about myself. Just can't lose sight of my accomplishments.
SEE YA <3

A Cosplayer's Weightloss Journey
Hey everybody!
Everyone knows that I've been trying to work hard and lose weight. For some reason, this time feels different. I probably said that many times before -- but it does! I think I'm on the right track and I'm excited to get the figure I've always wanted. I have my measurements, weighed myself and took pictures to compare my results bi-weekly. I started insanity today. I hear nothing but good things, but man is it going to be intense. However, it's going to take dedication like everything else. So I will keep you updated on that!
Here's to hoping I reach my goal and head to my next con with a banging body ;D Haha. I would like to
Update On how I'm doing :D
In the right picture I was 200 pounds over weight.
Today, I'm 175.
My goal? Is to be 150 or even lower by the time ALA comes around. My long term goal is to shoot for 135. Under 145 is healthy for my height.~
In the cosplay community, there a lot of people who get teased and looked down on for being over-weight. We are told that we can't cosplay certain characters because it would not be flattering. I never found that offensive for me because I knew that it was difficult to really cosplay characters I wanted to cosplay due to my weight. Anytime I was around my skinnier friends, I felt like I received only glances because I wasn't nearly as
The Losing Weight Adventure Begins
These last few months I really stopped focusing on my goal to lose weight. I allowed classes to distract me or would prefer eating out with friends. Today, I'm making the change. I know I've said this so many times before -- But in my heart, I really do mean it. Personally, I'm not happy with my body. It puts me down too when I cosplay because I want to be able to do certain characters and feel confident in my own skin. It seems that all my girl friends around me, especially cosplay friends, are petite. So in way, I don't feel like I'm to my full potential. I want to be healthier too and be happy with the way I look. I know that's possible so
Anime Expo 2013
WOW. I can't believe Anime Expo is almost here. I'm trying not to worry too much on my cosplays. I think I'll be able to finish everything I need to do on it!! But I guess we'll see. I don't want to go last minute cosplay crazy, or let alone have to be working in the hotel at all. I'm not much for secrets, but what I plan to bring is.....
Misery - Cave story
Fluttershy Gala - MLP
Cordelia - Fire Emblem
That's my line up~! I will either be rewearing one of them or have a non-cosplay day and just do shoots! But not too sure yet :D I can't wait!
So what are your plans for Anime Expo?? :D
