    I feel you, I am 21, and have been chubby since I was about 14. I just got so fed up, this site is so helpful. Tracking your food (good and BAD) is the first step, and really an eye opener. I bet I was consuming about 3000+ calories before joining this site. You will do great, and good luck! :flowerforyou:
