Default Scared and nervous "Elephant"

I got the nickname in junior high and it has stuck with me. I am 330 lbs and sick and tired of it. It is high time for some positive change in my life and I think I made a right step by signing up with the Ideal Protein clinic. I am day 9 and 14lbs down. I can do this.

What a cruel thing to say to anyone! Good luck my dear, we're here for you. Don't let anyone but yourself influence you, because doing it for those childish pricks will get you nowhere. I bet you're beautiful as-is, but doing it for your health should be reason numero-uno.

Message if you ever need an ear! Support is abound on these forums.

Welcome aboard, I started at basically the same weight as you and 18 weeks down i'm melting the fat off.

Joining this website has definitely played a significant role in helping me lose it all.

You can do this!!
