My name is Claire, I'm a 20 year old student, and new to the threads, but not to attempted weight loss!

I figured it's time to stop talking and start doing as I near my senior year of college. I've missed out (and hidden) from too many life experiences, and I'm tired of it. I currently weigh 254 lbs, the heaviest of my life, and would like to get down to 150 at the end of all this, though I would be happy to just be healthy and gain some confidence.

I know this is going to be tough. I've tried so many methods, been diagnosed with depression/anxiety and Binge Eating Disorder, but I've never had a community behind me helping me through every step.

I look forward to getting to know many people, making friends, and watching everyone meet their goals!

I wanted to be able to go out with my friends and not feel like the fat one. I want to be confident by the time I find my career. totally understand your situation hun.
