I'm not new to the app but I am new to commiting to losing weight. My name is Monica and I recently turned 20 this month. I've always been petite and self conscious but learned to love my body and myself! Over the last year I managed to be my heaviest at 146 pounds. I understand that may not sound like a lot but for somebody who's always been 90-100 pounds, it's like being in a body I don't recognize. Because of my weight gain and struggles with my self esteem, I've fallen into a depression. I decided that I can't live like this. I need help finding motivation and I need a pal that could text or email or whatever to help motivate each other and cheer each other on! I know we call all do it just with a little help :-)

    How tall are you?
  • Hi Monica, I remember being 20, it wasn't an easy age for me. Regardless of your weight, you are still you, reach deep, you have the motivation and drive to accomplish this. I've spent a lot of my adult life over weight because I let anxiety and emotions rule what I ate and how much. I completely regret it. Now is the time for you to get a handle on it. You can do this!!!
