in Introduce Yourself
so I already posted this somewhere else buttt-

Hello! My name's Toni & I'm 22. I've been on here for just over a week and I've decided it's time to find some friends to give me even more reason to keep using the site! I lost around 70 pounds from late 2010 to early 2012, going from 260ish to around 190...then moved in with my mom for a summer and started gaining again! By that winter I was 225. Well I didn't like that and started trying to lose again. I got to 210....then found out I was pregnant 5 months into the pregnancy! Well 210 became 245. After having the beautiful little baby girl, I went back to 226. Now I just want to get at least back to under 200, but 165, a healthy weight for my height, would be the ultimate. I have sorta high cheek bones and my face did start looking slightly gaunt around 190 and that makes me nervous.

If you managed to get through that, its obvious im a yoyo-er. I wanna break that and help someone else break their own problems! I wanna have healthy eating habits etc to pass on to my baby. Anyway please add me if you'd like some more accountability! I'd be so thankful for the companionship.

    I feel the same, I can't do this on my own! I get demotivated and I need some diet buddies to cheer me on when the going gets tough. I'll be supportive right back, I promise!

    Hey Toni, Congrats on getting back on track! I'm 54 and much older but would also benefit on some new friends to chat with.

    This battle is ongoing and it's great to have encouragement on the way.
