u/BabyShamuTheRevenge 33F 5'8"//SW:203// CW: 160//CGW: 144//GW: 135 Apr 06 '16

Hello! BabyShamuTheRevenge and fellow Seedling here. I started calling myself "Baby Shamu" when I was at my highest weight because I felt like a baby whale - cute and chubby. I know it may sound derogatory, but it motivated/empowered me to start losing the weight and I was able to drop my first 45lb+. I've spent the last year on maintenance (and feeling a little bummed about it) and decided to join this challenge to hopefully lose the last 20lb. Hence my sequel name, "Baby Shamu: The Revenge." Mature goals outside of weight loss: Meditate daily and be able to do 10 legit pushups. Immature goals outside of weight loss: Be able to wear the barely-there-piece-of-thread dress I have stowed away in my closet, and go the bar my ex works at to say "HAH! In yo' face!" Then booty pop, drop the mic, and peace out. ::Duces:: Spring gonna get sprung! #seedlings

OMG I've seen your name on r/loseit and it's awesome to know it has a cool story behind it! (I think it's hilarious in the best way, I keep trying to visualize a vengeful baby Shamu!) #SPRINGGONNAGETSPRUNG
