I'm new here and would love to meet people!
 
Hello everyone!

I've never joined any type of online community, so I really have no idea what this is all about. But I'd love to find other women who are fighting the same battle I am.

I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Cassie; I'm 24 years old and live just outside Chicago. I have never been thin, so this has been a lifelong battle for me. I'm doing it though. I'm eating well (on a 1600 calorie diet, thanks to my dietician), and exercising almost every day - I'm even training to run the Chicago Half Marathon!

But, I could still use some moral support, some friendly conversation. And I'd certainly love to offer the same to anyone! :D

Thanks!

Hi Cassie :)

I'm 24, and also never been thin, but we're both well on our way! Have a look around you'll find a ton of like-minded people. Check out the 20-something's, and Calorie Counters area for starters, but don't hesitate to post wherever you're comfortable! See you around!

Best of success!!!

Welcome! Back when I was thin I thought I was fat, and by the time I managed to shed my awful attitudes about food, I'd become fat for real. We're all in this together!

Hi, Cassie! Welcome!

I'm new, too, and also a 20-something and a calorie counter. You should definitely check out those forums; they're really great.

Best of luck to you!

Hello Cassie!
I'm also new...although I am not really new in online community thing. I just joined couple hours ago and I'm still busy reading stuff, as there are soooo many to read. Success stories are specially very encouraging..as I really set my mind on diet this time.
I'm 27 years old from Michigan. Single mom, full time work, full time student, and now full time weight loss too. =)

Good luck with your journey!!

Tara :D

Wow! Thank you soooo much to everyone that responded. I didn't expect so much encouragement and so many positive thoughts!

I'm glad I read these when I did - great motivation for what I'm about to do: bike to the gym, workout, bike home, then run. Here goes!

Hello! I've just joined too. I'm 22 in the UK. A few years ago I lost 4 1/2 stone in 9 months due to my wedding (all the running about & stress!) but have put it all back on and more. Argh it's frustrating, so I look forward to making friends with other people in teh same situation :-)
