Default Hello

Hi,

New to the forum. I've lurked a few times, especially looking at before, during and after pics for inspiration.

I've been over weight my entire life. I've always had trouble making friends and in the last few years have had some social anxiety. I really haven't been living my life and these should be some of the best years.

I've put off getting married -- I keep telling myself next year, I'll lose weight so I can wear the dress I love and look and feel good in it. Same with children. I want to start a family, but I want to be healthier before I do so.

About 6.5 weeks ago I decided to get serious about losing weight. I'm down 24.5 lbs and excited about the future. I've started planning my wedding too!

I look forward to sharing in everyone's progress and sharing my progress with everyone. It's amazing to see the weight loss others have already achieved!

Thanks for reading!

Ren
