3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

I'm new to this site, but i really appreciate the amount of support you give to one another. I think that's what i currently need now that i've decided to make a commitment to losing this weight. My Name is Tiffany , i'm 26yrs 5'11 and currently at 230lbs. That's the heaviest i've ever been in my life. My goal is to get down to a size that normal and healthy for me , my ideal being 155lbs. I didn't grow up overweight but i always felt for those who have , and the ridicule i've watched them go through. I began gaining after going through one of the most traumatic experiances in my life, an abusive relationship with a man who later left me. I went through months of emotional exhaustion to try and recover. I eventually found myself 60lbs over weight from eating and never leaving the house. The city i was living in at the time wasn't ideal for walking and getting out but now that i've moved im looking to change all of that. I'm currently 80lbs over my target weight. Anyway, i look forward to getting to know some of you.. ANyone who feels they need encouragement is welcome to contact me either private or through my posts.. :^: just let me know.:D
