Hi, my name is Zeanea, I'm 19 years old(20 at the end of this month), I have been trying to lose weight since about February. I have lost almost 20 ounds to date but my weight does flucuate a little. I've found that everytime I lose some weight I have to call somebody and tell them. I need the compliments from people to help me feel as though I'm doing a good job and should keep at it. I have considerably more weight to lose than you but if you are looking for a buddy, I'm a little closer to your age than some people I have seen on here. I also have steadily been losing weight if your looking for somebody to do it with you. I'm new to this as well and I thought maybe we could kind of figure it out together. I feel it's important to have a support network of people to tell you your doing a great job and comfort you when you hit a slump and tell you not to give up. I'm not completely sure how this works. write me back and let me know if your interested.
