Default A trend, I am also new

So, I was waiting to get my hair cut the other day and picked up the "O" magazine which featured an article about this site. So, here I am formally introducing myself to the community.

26 year old male that never remembers being thin or of average size. I was always the chubby kid and at this age, I'm fed up and ready to overcome.

I will share more as time goes on, but I just wanted to say hello and look forward to sharing support and getting some in return.

Hello!

Welcome to the group. The people on here are very supportive. There are a bunch of different groups and you may find some are more your style than others. I hope you reach your goal. Good luck!
