Hello!
Hello, my name is Imani but please feel free to call me Tigzz. I just found this forum since I was initially on a search for a weight loss pen pal. I just recently started my weight loss journey. I'm taking baby steps out of fear quitting too soon. But recently I wanted to lose weight because I got a scare at the physician who informed me that I was prediabetic. This worried me greatly. I lost 20 pounds before at the beginning of college and am now hoping to lose 45 now. I am confident enough to say that my weight gain started when I moved back home from college. College not going as I initially planned put me in a bit of a stitch and knocked my confidence a bit. This causing me to lean on food for comfort unfortunately. When I came home I was 155 pounds, then I shot up to 175 pounds. Then when the pandemic hit it shot up another 20 pounds and I am now 5'3 at 195 pounds. So over the past 3 years I've gained 40 pounds. This has taken a great blow to my confidence or even how I see myself because I know I can take care of myself better which is what I plan to do. I've done it before by myself, but this time I really need help because I keep making the same mistakes. And I don't want to be 195 pounds come my birthday in January. Even if it's just a 10 pound difference by then, I want to start somewhere with some help. I thought I would give this place a try because the people and individuals on here seem sincere. Whether it be someone already skilled in weight loss or a buddy who is also starting out. I just know I won't be able to do it by myself and wanted to start here as well as offer help and guidance if I can.
