Long way to go - let's support each other!

Hey guys! I've been trying to lose weight for a long time, but idk something finally clicked, and I'm ready to change. I just got through almost the first year of college, and I'm easily in the 99th percentile of weight of everyone here. It's a pretty big damper on confidence, considering I'm a girl...and body image etc. It's a sucky feeling. I'm just so ready to start living life the way I want to. I'm hoping to lose over a hundred pounds, so I have a long way to go! But yeah, I'm looking for anyone in a similar situation..I'd love to build a community of support! Add me as a friend or you know, whatever you do :P Thanks :D

    Same here, I'm new here and looking to lose 100 pounds. It seems overwhelming at first but we just have to take it little by little and set smaller goals. I think logging our food on here and interacting with friends on this site will be a big help! :)

    Hey i'm the same need to lose a big chunk of myself, hate how i look these days with zero confidence to wear nothing other than leggings & baggy tops. I've used mfp before i had kids & got down to an ok weight & looking to do better this time. I've challenged myself to lose 40 lb for xmas only 11 days in so far but fingers crossed. Feel free to add me i'm a lovely motivator )
