Hey Everybody! I just turned 18 last week. I'm going to college in the fall, but I'm going to be living at home. I started gaining weight when I was 7. My brother says before then I was boney. I started dieting when I was in 7th grade because this boy called me cupcake everyday. And I've been trying to lose weight with my best friend ever since then. But it doesn't really help that she weighs about 60 pounds less than me and can avoid temptations. I started trying to lose weight again about 2 days after my high school graduation. And I lost 8 pounds in a week. So I was down to 194. And then I started slacking. And I gained 4 pounds. So I registered here hoping to keep my motivation.
