Hi! My final push (hopefully)
 

Hello everyone, my name is Ash. My current BMI puts me firmly within the 'obese' category. I've been struggling with my weight for a long time now, since I was 10 probably, and now I am 19.

I feel like I have been (and still am) missing out on a lot of things in my life and even though I have lost a bit of weight (thanks to moving away from home!) I've recently come back for summer and began to put it all back on :( .

Next year I am going on a year abroad, and I really don't want to be weighed down (haha) by all by insecurities about my unhealthy size. So I am using it as motivation to really push myself over the next few weeks (and months, and years) to really put my best effort into losing my weight once and for all!!

I would really appreciate all your help and support, and I look forward to giving you all the same! <3 <3 lots of love

Hi Ash, I'm Chesney. Welcome to the forum. I'm kind of new here too and am still finding my way around. There are definitely some good resources here, and plenty of helpful people.

I wish you all the best in getting into a good routine to get your weight loss journey started. :)

Thanks Chesney, best of luck to you too! :)

Hi and welcome! You can do it!
