My name is Bailey Brannon and I began my weight lost journey on March 16, 2015. I've already lost 11 pounds and am so excited to lose another 104. I am 18 years old and have always been the fat friend in my group of beautiful best friends. I get discouraged at times and often turn to food. As many other Americans seem to do, I literally eat in every mood I am in. This 11 pounds is a mini success for me and a glimpse at what I can do. Any one who would like to can add me! I'm a good motivator, I just lack the self respect I know I deserve, therefore depriving myself of the encouragement I desperately need. I'm not giving up this time though. Nothing tastes as good as being skinny will feel. Good luck to everyone! I hope we will all become success stories.

    Good luck Bailey! You are off to a great start and I know you can do this, one step at a time! You have so much of your life ahead of you that making this healthy and meaningful change now will absolutely change almost everything about your future. You will have more energy to pursue all the things that are important to you in life. You are worthwhile - put yourself first and don't deprive yourself of taking good care of you. :smile:

    So happy to see that you're making a change while you're still so young! I lost 70 pounds when I was 16. I put the weight back on when I was 21, lost it again at 23 and now 13 years later, I'm trying to lose it again! Let me tell you, it is way easier to lose it when you're young! You can do it!!

    Good luck Bailey! 11 pounds is more than a mini success, I think. It's the first in many successes to come. I'm going to send you a friend request if that's alright :)

  • I am also the fat friend. And the one that "has such a pretty face". I hear that a lot. My Bff is half my size and always gets the attention when we go out. I never can stick to a diet, I lose motivation. I think I'll take this weight with me to my grave :'( I try and fail, try and fail. I think I give up before I get started.
