    yes the succes stories are amazing hopefully one day we'll share our story!!
    we can do this ! dont give up~~!!!

    Good luck to u too!!
  • I'm glad I found this site too! The success stories are very encouraging!!
  • welcome !! ^_^
  • Welcome from another new member. I too look forward to being able to post my own success story!
  • Wow, there are a lot of younger people on here too! It's always nice to be able to relate to others doing stuff like this, I'm so excited!

    I just turned 21, and just quit my job to focus on school full time.. logically I use up the last of my health insurance, and I find out I'm at 207!!?!? Holy crap.

    I've always generally liked the way I looked, at least not too much to do anything about it for too long. I'm pushing 5'8, so I look pretty proportioned and hide my tummy well. But its summer time and I wanna not be so embarrassed of my thighs and knees! I wanna get into some cute shorts!! (hence the icon)

    It's really hit me that we've got to do this thing while we're young and its easier.. and take advantage of our youth!!!

    Let's do it girls!!!! And keep each other updated!
  • Good luck
    You sounds very motivated and ready for this challenge! I wish you all the best.
  • Cloui, sounds like we're in a similar boat! So glad we all have this great community to find success in!
  • Hello! I just joined too, 22, and was born and raised in Ohio, where you're from. The midwest is like a trap because there's nowhere to walk! Anyways, best of luck, hope to be seeing you around the forum and stick with it! I know I will be doin my darndest.
  • Quote: Hello everybody, I'm new to this site I found it randomly but as soon as I started to read all the success stories i was hooked. So here I am.

    I am 20 years old and have being overweight all my life, being through alot but even though I was always ashamed of how I looked I never tried hard enough to change the way I felt. This time I will not stop until I achieve my goal!
    I will not STOP!
    I have already lost about 14 lbs and my goal is to get to 130 (right now 208)
    this past weeks I have being struggling because I wasnt feeling really motivated until now, I really like this forum and the stories, they are amazing and I hope that one day, very soon I will also be sharing my success story.
    this is a long journey but I know that Im going to win this battle.

    :^) -Call me by my name, not by the way I look

    Welcome to the site! I too just found this place and I am excited to find a place like this too. It is SOOO motivating to read everyone's struggles and successes! I try to pop in here daily to just to get motivated! You are among friends!
  • Congratulation
  • I've been the same...Everyone around me only likes to comment on my weight and how since high school I was skinny (binge dieting) and now am large. This site provides people that are god sent! I been looking for something like this, and love how it gives you the courage and emotional support you need to get going.
