New and need support and tips

qtlauren1

Hey I'm new here. I am looking to lose 15 pounds as soon and fast and effective as I can. I'm 4 feet 11 inches. So I'm short. I have an apple body shape and I would feel a lot better about myself if I had a flat stomach or abs instead of a flabby mid section. I need support and tips and help on my journey towards health. I eat pretty bad and I need to start exercising but I don't know where to start. Please help! Thank you
