Post a new journey.

Hello everyone! My name is Regina. I was referred to this site by a friend. When I looked at it, I was impressed. And very excited to find something that could be a support for me in this brand new journey.

Recently, I've been doing alot of thinking. I'm really overweight. I have been my whole life. I was always the chubby kid in school. But now, as I've just hit 21 years old, I've come to realize some things. I have realized that if I don't lose weight soon I'll be opening myself to many serious health risks.

I'm a person that loves to travel and see new things. I'm the type of person that wants to go out and do things all the time, no matter where I am or who I'm with. But being overweight is a burden in that aspect. I'm not capable of doing the things that I truly want to do or see. And I'll be honest, that just down right sucks!! Haha.

So....
I have came to the decision that it is now or never. I will put healthy food and drinks into my body. I will excercise so I can be strong. I will not use my weight for an excuse anymore.

I've come to this site so I could receive support from women who know exactly what I'm going through. And through the process I hope that I am able to help anyone who needs it.

Thanks!

-Regina-

Thank you for your honesty and commitment, Regina. I, too, have been using excuses for not doing the things I want to do. My excuse has been my ankle injury as a reason for not losing weight. We must face our true selves!

Regina, welcome to 3FC!

You might like the 20-somethings forum, for a place to start making connections here. There are also diet-specific and exercise specific forums that might interest you. Otherwise, just jump in anywhere and start posting. Best of luck on your weight loss!
