I'm new here. Hi!
 

So I guess I'm new here. I gained ~20lbs in the past year, 30 total in the last two years. Clearly something needs to change. I'm only 18... if this pattern keeps up, I'll eat myself to death! So clearly I need to make a lifestyle change. I've definitely tried to diet before, but it just hasn't worked. In fact, I thought my weight gain was because of the dieting and gaining weight back, but it clearly isn't. So yeah, that's me.

:welcome: Glad to have you here!

Welcome :)

You are a bright person to realize the need to care for yourself. Welcome.

Welcome :hug: Glad you made the step now. It's harder when you get older. There are lots of great resources here.
