Default I need help. I need support. I need a buddy.

My name is Jeanette and I am a teenager. Since I was little I have been overweight. It makes me feel very awful inside. That's why I've decided to take control and lose weight. All I ask is some motivation. And encouragement. I will give you the same. Please help me.

Hi Jeanette
I'm new here too, and while I'm old enough to be your mother, I hope I can give you support when you need it.
I am so glad you are taking the first step to being more healthy. let me know when you need a little extra help and I'll try to get it to you.

Hi Jeanette, Betty. Do either of you have a food and activity plan or are you looking around for ideas?

Hey Jeanette, I'm a teenager as well who has been overweight since I was five. Trust me, this IS the place to be for support. If you want to be buddies then just PM me or if you just need some support.. I'm here with the rest!

Welcome the the forum, Jeanette. I wish you luck in your goal to be healthier and happier this coming year. Look at your signature, it looks as though we have about the same amount of weight to lose. I'm 18 (yeah so I'm teenager as well ) I'm looking forward to a healthier and happier year and life as well.

Feel free to PM me or contact me through one of the messengers I've left in my profile.

Jeanette,

First off, congratulations on starting now to take the journey to a new, fit and healthy you! I wasted a lot of years of my life being morbidly obese. It has kind of become a mission for me to try and help young people avoid making the same mistake I did. If you ever need any help or advice on weight loss, I would be happy to help. I made a post with a few ideas for getting started on a weight loss journey. Maybe some of them will help you. http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=71002

I so wish you the very very best. You can do it!
