New Member! 18 years old, have some weight to lose and looking for support!

  • Hey everyone!

    I just found this site, so far it looks great!
    I just bought a gym membership last week and being going regularly, hopefully 4-5 times a week. I also started eating healthier and already lost 3 pounds in a week!
    I used to be pretty thin, but in the year and half Ive been going out with a thin guy with a super high metabolism and have been eating at his level! (Not too smart) and I have gained 30 pounds.. going from 160 to 192 pounds.. my highest ever!
    I would love any helpful hints or suggestions anyone can leave me!
  • It was the same with me and my guy. Its just a matter of burning more claories than you eat. Altho it is not recommended that you eat stupid low amounts of calories.

    I have been dieting since christmas and have lost 28lbs (1 ans a half stone), this is through a combination of running (for an hour most nites) and eating sensibly and small amounts. Im plateauing at the moment

    Anyways, good luck with your weight loss and I hope you find the forums as useful as I have.
