Introduction!
 

Hi all,
:wave:
I am knobhdy. I am committed and 25 and I have to loose 70 lbs.
I find it comforting to know that I am not the only “young” person in this position. Most of the younger people I work with are thin and the older ones are all trying to loose. The kids (I teach high school) are much more likely to have anorexia then be over weight and many of then are inheriting it from their mothers. (or fathers.) :rolleyes:

I wish our society did not encourage such extremes. :mad: We all “know” that we are supposed to be thin and beautiful, but we are also being told constantly that we should eat, and sit, and drive everywhere.

It is nice to have a site like this where we can support each other.
:grouphug:

Welcome knobhdy and congrats on the weight you've lost already. Feel free to jump right in!

It's great to have you join us knobhdy! I know you'll be welcome here and find support. ;)

Welcome, welcome! Glad you found us. (-; I agree about the mixed messages society gives; technology has taken all the "work" out of our lives, and so now we have to find a way to put it back in, like going to the gym. Kinda goofy! We can do it, though. (-;
