I hope to make friends!!
Hello everyone,
I am obviously new to the forum, but I am not new to diet and the absolute loneliness felt when trying to lose weight. I have tried dangerous diet after dangerous diet pills, to trying to throw up after every meal. I am usually a positive person and I love helping others, but I discover sometimes it's myself that needs that extra boost, cheer and support when it comes to weight loss.
I am 22 years old and used to be quite in shape in my younger years (yes, roll your eyes if you must! I know I'm young but it seems so long ago to me! =D). I have not been in shape since I was 9-years-old when I came down with a sickness and, though I have recovered, have maintained the lazy lifestyle that accompanied my illness.
I'm trying to change my life around. Start a new diet, a healthier one, go back to college, and become more active. Since early October, I've lost 15 pounds but I find that I'm starting to slow my pace again. I'm beginning to lose my nerve! I really hope that I can find a good community here with support that I can offer and also receive.
A little about me: I have had a love of video games ever since I was 3-years-old, followed by an addiction to the Japanese language at 5-years-old. Since I have grown to love Japanese culture, fashion, music, and language in general. To this day I still play video games, enjoy my Japanese rock music and attempt to go out in the latest Japanese fashion.
I am currently attempting to gain entry into Oxford University with a major in English studies. I love to write, and perhaps writing a column in a Japanese fashion magazine is what would suit me best! If not I hope to one day write the scripts and story lines for up and coming video games!
