I am a 26 year old female in dire need of some girl friends who also struggle with their weight! I have had weight issues since I was a small child and due to some issues over the last year I managed to gain another 50 pounds. Thankfully I have already lost 45 of that but I hope to never have to see the 271 on the scale ever again!!!

Sadly the main reason I dropped the 45 so fast was that my exfiance called our wedding off a month before the big day and I had a rough couple of last months. Now I am to the point where I just want to focus on making myself happy and healthy. I am so glad I found this place! You guys seem to supportive and nice!!!

Hi!! I'm new too, and I've found everyone to be very supportive too!

Welcome! We can all drop this extra weight together!! YEY!

This is a good place Even when I stopped focussing on my weight loss for a few months and was working on quitting smoking and eating healthier and cutting out gluten, coming back was like I had never left.

One huge motivator is to look through the goal and mini goal threads, just think, that will be you one day! When I first started it seemed like there was so much ahead, and there was, but now I'm already at a 26 pound loss and am feeling great.

Keep it up and stick around

Welcome bright!!! There's plenty of ppl here to support and encourage you and drop some poundage with ya!
