I'm Mahalia and I'm new here. I'm 17 years old and I need to lose about 60 lbs. As you can tell, I have a long way to go. It's been a struggle for me, especially this past year because my father had recently passed away. I had lost 21 lbs prior to that but gained it all due to eating so much comfort food. I really want to get out of this rut that I've been in most of my life. I have always been overweight and I want to know how skinny (and healthy) feels like.
I used to be on a site identical to this but I realized my mistake was not making friends with others and I quickly lost the motivation. I'm trying not to make the same mistake, so if anyone wants to add me as a friend or talk, I'm always here. :)

  • Hey!
    I'm 17 too, and have nearly same goals. I'm kinda new here too, and don't have anyone to motivate me or anything. Add me if you'd like, and we'll keep each other going ;p
