I was reading through a few of the posts on this thread and you all seem very supportive.. SO I thought I'd make a post and say hi and introduce myself.. Well my name is Amanda, I'm 21 years old and currently at my highest weight, which is 240lbs. I'm miserable and depressed... I have to do something about it now!

I'm currently on weight watchers, I just started Monday and so far so good! My goal weight is 140 or 150 whatever puts me in a size 8... I still want curves I don't want to be a stick.. Anyways I hope you talk to you all soon!

you will Love it here. Lots of advice, help and great support, is in store for you here. Good Luck and glad to see you have joined us.

Another WW here, for me WW is a way of life, this is to get healthy, this will be the last time I will need to lose this much weight.
I saw this quote on one of the threads and it really says alot {sorry if I mess it up}
"Being fat is hard, Losing weight is hard, Maintence is hard" Pick your hard.
