Hey everyone. I'm both nervous and excited to embark on this journey. I am 24 years old and I'm tired of being fat. My boyfriend is so not supportive because of my up and down dieting. i want to prove him wrong! Networking with people that are in HR would be great too. I'm a college student in an MBA program. You guys I'm counting on you. I need to change because being overweight has made life for myself so hard. I'm not the person I use to be. I'm so wrapped in the way I look that its hurt my relationship. Is there anyone out there like me? I hope that I can make a lot a friends. I think I'll join the 20somethings and the low carb diet forums. Well thats my intro. I wish everyone luck!

Hi there, and

Looks like you've found your way around, which is awesome. You might want to check out the 100 lb club, too (for folks on their way to losing or who have lost around 100 lbs). I post ALL OVER, so just jump into any and all spots that feel right to you.

You've found a great spot for support, that's for sure! Again, welcome...can't wait to get to know you better.

Thanks for the welcome wagon! You seem well adjusted to the site. How do I post my ticker factory?

[mandalinn82]

You need to be a member for at least 20 days, and have at least 20 posts, in order to post a ticker. Since the tickers are link-based, we had to put this rule in place to deter spammers (who would join, post random things all over, then put a spam link in their signatures and plaster the board with advertising...annoying).

The nice thing, though, is that when you DO get your ticker, you'll have some progress to track on it!

Once it's enabled, you can find the Signature option in your UserCP.
