I just turned 18 and I'm 255 pounds. It's quite depressing, but I just joined a gym with some friends and I'm looking forward to hopefully losing some weight. I just feel like I need a little extra support from people who are going through the same change as I am. And people who know the challenges I'm facing better than my friends do.
So, hello! :]
--You have certainly come to the right place! I am pretty much around your same weight and am desperately trying to lose it! But I try to take things one day at a time. What kind of diet are you starting on?
