Hello my name is Alicia! I'm 20 years old, and I have made the decision to finally give myself the gift of health and wellness. I've been overweight/obese for 8 years, and before that I was heavy as a child.

This is not my first time attempting to lose weight. I've attempted many times before, and at the only time I was down to a healthy weight, I had anorexia. I am not accepting any more excuses from myself, and I am looking forward to making some new friends here along the way!

  • Hey Alicia, I am a 33 year old mother of 2 who has also struggled most of my life with weight. I am ready to start fighting the fight again myself. You're young and have your whole life ahead of you...you can do this my dear!!

    Hi Alicia,

    Welcome! Its a great place to be, and a great time to start. I'm hoping to be more active myself over the coming weeks - my sister is getting married in May and I want to be able to fit into my bridesmaids dress! - so if you want to add me as a friend, please do so!

    All the best on your journey! xx
