Hi!

Wow, am I glad to have found to this site!

I am 21 yrs old, 5'6, 216 lbs, looking to weigh 130. (Gosh, I feel so much better just writing that down... I haven't told anyone my true weight in years!!)

I have always looked like a confident person on the outside...
I am constantly getting on dates. My friends and family tell me I am pretty. I dress well.
But on the inside... I am a mess. I hate how I look in photos, I compare myself to every single woman I see on the street. I am a compulsive shopper..... No matter how many pieces of clothing I own, I am not not happy with how I look in them...

I started medifast a few days ago and have been doing pretty well on it. I am cheating a little, but only with healthy food (small spoon of peanut butter, few slices of turkey breast, few cubes of tofu...)

Are there any young women who live in NYC? I would love to find a few girls to get together with... Walk in the park, jogs (not that I can go far at this point... But it's a goal to be an,e to run a mile.), stuff like that.
Would also be interested in having a few friends to simply text, email about our days/weight loss.

Hourglass, welcome, glad to have you join us. I suggest you look for a Challenge or Support group to join; small check-in groups make it easier to connect, get involved, and be accountable. We have groups centering around specific diet plans, themes, or age groups, so find one that inspires you and just post to join.
