Hello! My name's Christina, and I'm on my 5th week of WW I'm only 14, but I'm FINALLY ready to lose weight. I've been "pleasantly plump" my whole life, and I'm tired of being the 'big girl'. Nice to meet you all!

Welcome, Christina! Kudos to you for deciding to get healthy so young! I'm 21 and I wish I had made this decision back then.

Clever username, by the way. Do you like Death Cab?

Good luck and enjoy exploring the site!

Jessica

Thanks!

And yeah, Death Cab is one of my favorite bands.

Hey Christina! Good for you starting to take control of your health at such a young age. I've been dieting on and off since I was 15 (almost six years now), and I think here you have some fantastic support to help you do this the "right" way. Do you have a particular plan you were going to follow in terms of eating/activity? Either way, I'm sure you'll do great!

EDIT: Sorry, I just noticed you mentioned WW. That's actually the first program I tried too. It stopped working for other reasons for me and the reason I went on it in the beginning was my mum had success on it post-pregnancy. Good luck!

Thank you

I'm a big eater, so my major goal here (besides looking good) is to have a healthier relationship with food. Eat only when I'm hungry, stop eating for comfort...

As for activity...do some?

Hi there Christina!

I'm a WWer, too! Best of luck on your goals! Have a look around, and post where you're comfortable. (There's a WW section under Diet Central that you might want to check out ^^)

Best of success!!!!

Hey girl, I'm 16. feel free to pm me if you need a young teen to chat with though I'm probably not the best one to go to for weight advice (lol!). ask one of the older folks.
