Support System

Hi everyone!
I never realized that there was a 'community' on here. This is great!
I've always been the type of person to focus my time and energy on helping others, but never wanted to help myself. I didn't feel like I was worth putting any effort into. Well, last year that changed! How am I supposed to help others to the best of my ability, if I'm not feeling good? I decided that first and foremost, I needed to do this for myself. I wanted to feel good. I wanted to look good, and be okay with admitting that to myself. I've lost a bunch of weight, and am going to the gym religiously. I feel better, but am not where I want to be just yet. There are times where I want to give up when things get tough, but I keep pushing along!
It would be nice to have a support system of sorts to help me through the last bit of my journey.
Feel free to add me.
