Hi everyone!
I started weight loss attempt number 304 four weeks ago and so far lost about 11 pounds. I really need support from someone who also has a long way to go. I got a friend but she only needs to lose about 40 pounds and she's not very committed to it.

I've been overweight my whole life and during my teenage years I didn't feel worthy. Now at almost 25 and almost done with uni I finally feel worthy to be thinner. I deserve more than this body that keeps me from doing the things I want.

It would be nice to have someone to talk to who knows what it feels like and is also committed to change their life.


PS. Sorry for my English not being perfect, I'm Dutch.

Hi Mountain!
I don't recommend learning Dutch, it's an ugly language :P

It would be nice to have someone to share stuff with. Like yesterday I went on a bike ride for an hour total, today I'm 2 pounds heavier. This happened two weeks ago too, also after a bike ride. I know it's just water, but still it's not very motivating. I keep drinking water even though I really don't want to because I'm afraid I'll be even heavier tomorrow. And I know you shouldn't weigh daily, but it helps me to keep focused, just these days when you gain from nothing really suck.

Those gains really stink. Especially when the eating/exercise is spot on.
