Default Hoping to find new friends and support

Hi Everybody! I came across this site this morning and decided to sign up because I am in serious need of a support system on my journey to losing the 130lbs that I need to lose. I have been heavy my entire life and I am lucky that I do not have the serious medical issues that my family has yet, but I know if I don't do something now, I am going to be in big trouble in just a few short years, and life is just too short to be trapped inside myself and limited because of my weight. I am going to do what it takes to get this weight off of me and the biggest thing I need is that support system that I can turn to when it gets hard to push through. I look forward to getting to know the people here and I am genuinely excited to start this new phase in my life.

Hello! I just came across this site today, too - and need it primarily as a support system! I want a lifestyle change rather than starting "just another diet." I wish you good luck!

Hi there =) (To both of you)

Have a look around and post wherever you're comfortable. You aren't alone on this journey. Everyone here wants everyone else to succeed.

You can do this!

Thank you! I was checking out the binge eating section because that is part of my problem so will probably be spending a lot of time there. Already have a wonderful feeling about this place!
