Default I'm ready!

Hi everyone!
Long story short, I'm a teenager who has felt insecure most of her teen years and I'm really tired of it. My weight has taken control of my life so badly I'm ready to take "when I lose weight..." off of the beginning of everything on my life's to-do list. I'm 16 years old and hopefully I will be able to lose the weight by the time I'm 18.

Well, I started WeightWatchers a little over a year and a half ago. I started out at 232 pounds and got down to around 212... a 20 pound weight loss was a huge deal for me. It's still given me a huge confidence boost even if I'm definitely unhappy with my weight, it still feels so much better now than it did before.

And it was nice while it lasted but I'm done basking in that minor achievement after all this time... After all that was but a fraction of my entire goal.

So, I'm back on WeightWatchers. I've been on it for a little over 2 weeks now and I'm already down to 206... I seriously cannot even say how badly I want to see a '1' in front of my weight again! ...Eh, one pound at a time. lol

To sum everything up... I'm a teenager, I weigh 206 pounds, and my ultimate goal is to reach 145 pounds within 2 years.

Hope to see you guys around. I can't wait to start a new chapter in my life with all of you.

Welcome! Congrats on your weight loss success thus far and maintaining your initial loss for a year.
Your goal is very attainable in two years. You can do it!

Welcome! You can do this. I stopped at 212 at one time too but I gained most of it back. So go you go for not!
