Hey everyone,
I'm new. I was looking for a positive way to find support in losing weight. I want to be healthy, but every time I start something like this I let my lack of self-esteem take control. I need a positive place to express how I am doing and to see what others are doing. I am looking for people to talk to who understand being overweight and wanting to change. I am tired of using my genetics as an excuse not to be thin. I am 5'5 and weigh 230, I have already lost 15 pounds but I want to be 160. If anyone is looking to talk to someone, or have an accountablilty partner, let me know.

Welcome to 3FC! Congrats on the 15 lbs lost. Glad you're here!

Hi eme20. Welcome to the board! I am not sure exactly how old you are, but, as a college girl, you are probably about the right "subset" for the 20-Something forum. They are very active posters, and they are very supportive of each other. You might want to check them out.

Hey there Eme -

We have many groups to investigate...by eating plan, by age range (such as the 20-somethings), and a ton of challenges, groups, and other support. So look around and you're sure to lots of spots to post and new friends.

Settle in and keep going. Can't wait to get to know you better!
