Default Introducing myself while admitting I have a problem...
Hello everyone!
I am new to 3FC but have already found the community so helpful. I am almost 20 years old and would say I have had a weight problem for my entire life. As a child, my older sister outsined me in many ways, and was brutally mean to me, which caused me to grow up feeling that I was unworthy of love/respect/beauty, and caused me to turn to food for comfort. My sister and I are best friends nowadays, and she is extremely sorry for all of the psychological damage she did, as we were just kids, and I forgive her for that, but the damage is done, and I have a problem.
My problem used to be worse. Back when I was topping off at about 230, I was extremely depressed and suffered from a panic disorder. I have successfully fought the depression and anxiety, and there is just one more obstacle standing in my way..... my weight...
I have lost some weight, but it has taken me 2 years!! I just keep going up and down like a yo yo... in the beg. of the year I got as low as 190, and then just creeped back up..
I am ready to finally get back on track and get back in control of my eating, and I appreciate all of the support I know I will have here....

Yes you can do this! I know how hard it is to battle your weight and depression. I have always believed the first step in getting the weight off is confidence in yourself and a positive attitude. It is so easy to turn to food for comfort..Everyone woman is entitled to selfconfidence and feeling beautiful, no matter what they weigh. Pretty on the outside does not always equate to pretty on the inside

Welcome! This place is absolutely wonderful!

Welcome! Depression and high weight can be a mighty two-horned devil to fight. But it CAN be done.

Good on you for losing already and taking steps to controlling your depression and anxiety issues! You are well on your way girlie!
