Default Introduction

Hey everyone! I'm a 23 year old medical student who has struggled with weight and body image issues since I was a child. I'm not sure what to expect out of this online forum but I need support and help while I try to get back down to a healthy weight. In the last two years, I've put on about 30 pounds and I've noticed a ton of health issues cropping up. So any help or support would be really appreciated. Thanks!

This is a great place for support, aks46! Welcome! It's a relief to be here among people who know exactly what you mean and have experiences to share.

Look around and find someplace to hang out. There's a group for 20-somethings that might be a good starting point. There are also various groups for different approaches to weight loss so you might want to check those out and see if something feels like a good home for you.
