New....and fat

  • Hi, Im Hayley....and a food addict.

    Ive been overweight for most of my Twenties, and if I dont start now, I will be obese forever.

    I suffer depression and anxiety, poor self esteem and poor self image.

    Im a huge (pardon the pun) fan of Twilight - hence the user name!
  • Hi Hayley! Welcome to the forums. Be sure and check out the Depression and Weight Issues subforum, I'm sure you can find loads of advice there to help you out. Looks like you've done a great job losing weight so far, keep it up! I hope to see you around.
  • Good on you. I've been overweight for my teens, twenties, thirties, forties and my fifties so far!

    What plan are you using?
  • Hi and welcome to 3FC.

    Good luck with your goals.

    Hugs

    I wish I was still in my 20s - I am now in my 30s

    Thanks everyone! When i see how many new introductions there are on the board I see that I am not alone in my journey!

    Im not on any "plan" per se...I have just cut out so much processed food and eat more fruit veggies and lean protein. I dont really want to go on a particular diet. This is not a diet for me...this is life for the rest of my life. I dont do anything now that I wont do when I am skinny again - if I cant maintain/keep going with it, I dont do it. Im through with diets!
  • welcome!! you are gonna find lots of great ideas and support here!
  • Hi and welcome Hayley! Twilight ROCKS! I love the books too!

    Good luck with your goals!

    There's a 30-somethings forum too!

    I haven't gotten around to reading or watching Twilight, but it's on my list!
  • Hi Hayley,

    Welcome to the forum! I understand the whole being overweight in 20's. Just have faith and you will meet your goals. Good luck!
