Default Hi my name is Anna and I'm a food-aholic.
Hi, I'm Anna. I am 22 years old, I will be 23 next month. I use a couple of forums so I thought that having another forum I'm active in would be a help, especially since this one is for support and encouragement, which I so desperately need. I joke about my weight, calling myself a big girl, or a fatty in front of friends to try and make light of it, one of my favorite phrases is being a professional fat-girl. Well this fat-girl is out looking for a new job title!

A little bit about myself, I've never been what you call skinny, nor do I have any desire to be so. I simply want to be healthy and be able to find clothes that fit me and look nice. I'm a jeans and t-shirt kind of gal, that's pretty much all I ever wear. I never wear shorts or skirts because I hate my legs and I always wear big loose fitting shirts because anything that touches my stomach makes me feel self conscious. I would love to be able to wear a cute top like my sister and aunt, but they just look bad on me. So I've decided to finally get serious about losing this weight and actually do something besides complain about it.

Wish me luck, I'm gonna need it!

LOL 'professional fat-girl', I also make fun of my weight in front of my friends to make light of the issue. But that hasn't helped know coz my friends make fun of my weight because I do so and it really is not funny anymore...

So work hard, read all the inspiring stories and you will be a 'professional svelte-girl' in no time...

Thanks for the welcomes everyone.

size8, I know exactly what you mean about how once you make fun of your own weight so much it's like your friends feel like it's okay to do so as well. I have one particular friend like that who will end up saying things that while she doesn't mean them to be hurtful and they're not said in malice, they are still painful to hear.
