It's true. Many people don't know my story. I have been told that life is like the ever-changing seasons and with each season people come and stay or come and leave. Whether it be for a short or long period of time people come into your life for specific reasons and although it may not make sense then, it will after the time passes.
There are 3 pictures before my first paragraph. They read: "You know my name, NOT my story", "Beauty isn't about having a pretty face. It's about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart, and a pretty soul", and lastly a picture that was taken September 15th 2015, J's 25th birthday. We were in D.C. Each picture will get an explanation within this blog. This will be introduction to who I am, and who I am becoming with each and every passing day.
Writing in a blog is healthy.
Sharing stories is healing.
Everyone has a story, it's up to them whether or not they want to share it.
This is my story.
My past, present, and future.
My concerns, thoughts, and adventures.
I'm sharing my life.
Here's to being 25 and starting over.
"You know my name NOT my story"
For starters my name is Katelynn Maria Yanes and I absolutely do not like that last name. It was my real father's last name and He was not in my life for the majority of it. He was only in my life for a period of a short time. I am 25 years old, My birthday is July 11th which coincidentally is also Free Slurpee day for 7-11 stores nationwide. Joy! I was raised by my Mother. It was just her and I for 17 years. That ended when she met my step father who I call "Dad" and they got married 9/22/2007. Literally 7 months after they met. I thought it was weird at first but then hey, when you know you know. I met my real dad when I was 17 years old and it was awkward and weird. He lied and snuck back into his country 2 year later and I haven't seen or talked to him since. I hated him for a while but now I just forgive him and that's all. I don't need to think about him really. I have been in real shitty relationships and have almost become a statistic, but I got sober and smart. I got an apartment, finished college and worked part time at a pizzeria and graduated college 12 months after. I went on some lame dates and then just stayed single for a while. I got my first "real office" job and got in contact with my now boyfriend. We started talking and well the rest is history and that's only been what's been going on this past year. I have 4 older siblings 3 younger siblings (from different dad's....i'll explain later) a sister in law and a brother in law. I also have 2 nephews. I drink coffee but not as much as I used to. I went to West Virginia for 2 weeks and changed my life. I am still jobless but I am not giving up hope. I sent out 5 resumes today.
"Beauty isn't about having a pretty face. It's about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart, and a pretty soul"
I have always been told I'm beautiful. By my family, ex boyfriends, friends, people, friends, strangers, etc.. I haven't been able to believe a single person until I literally realized it myself. I may have confidence now but it wasn't something I always had. I wasn't happy with my weight or myself. When I was in middle school I was the perfect weight. I weighed 150 and my Doctor even said "Katelynn you are at your perfect weight for your height. Don't gain a pound, don't lose a pound" wow, what a heavy burden to put on a 14 year old. I obviously gained plenty of weight and was not the same since then. I haven't seen myself in the 100's or even the 200's in years. As of now I weigh 245. I was 276 before I started Purium which is a lifestyle change not just a diet. While I was doing the 10 cleanse/detox I really started seeing myself as beautiful. My skin was clear, my eyes were brown, and I was feeling healthy. I had a total transformation. I know see it. I am a rare beauty. I have the looks, the personality, the mind and soul. I am a rare beautiful young woman. It took some time to realize that, but it's true. I love myself and see myself as that beautiful enough to get healthy and do right by my body. I'm figuring out how to truly love myself flaws, failures, and success's. I am Beautiful in every way. It's time I've accepted it.
"My picture"
That was taken September 14th 2015 in Washington D.C. My boyfriend J and I decided on doing a trip he wanted for his birthday "weekend". He's a chef so his weekend was week days. We did Hershey park Sunday, Washington D.C Monday, and Harper's Ferry Tuesday and he left that night. That day was one of my favorite days. We were on vacation together. This was my first vacation with a significant other and it was the best one. We really had a great time. Life is such an adventure since I've met him and it bring such joy to my heart. Here's to many more posts of my love life, since he's the best thing to ever happen to my life. My soulmate<3
