MY NAME IS LATISHA AND IM 25 YRS OLD, I HAVE STRUGGLED WITH MY WEIGHT ALL THROUGH HIGHSCHOOL , BUT WANTS I GRADUATED IT GOT WORSE. I HAVE A TENDACY TO NOT EAT THEREFORE WHEN I DO EAT I CAN DOUBLE WEIGHT, LAST SUMMER I WAS 296 POUNDS AND NOW IM 269. MY GOAL IS TO GET UNDER 200 AND STAY THAT WAY AND TO BE HEALTHY . I STARTED GETTING IN SHAPE WITH MY BEST FRIEND AND ITS GREAT BECAUSE WE ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER, WE HAVE DONE DIETS AND JOINED GYMS BUT NEVER STUCK IT OUT, I FEEL THAT THIS SITE WILL HELP ME COUNT MY CALORIES AND CARBS BECAUSE FOR SOME REASON I CANT COMPLETELY GIVE UP CARBS AND WHEN YOU CUT SOMETHING OUT UR DIET COMPLETELY YOU TEND TO BINGE AND THEN CRASH, SO IM TRYING SOME NEW THINGS, I ALSO THOUGHT THAT TO LOOSE WEIGHT I SHOULD EAT LESS, BUT REALLY I LOST WEIGHT AND THEN GAINED IT BACK DOUBLE TIME, SO I HOPE THIS WORKS AND I REACH MY GOAL TO BE AT LEAST 200 OR LESS BY MY 25TH BIRTHDAY IN JULY

    I am the same way you are! I have struggled with weight since like middle school, and It's a terrible feeling, feeling as though you are in a body that you are not comfortable in. This will definitely help you out! If you'd like to add me as as a friend on here, you can! We can encourage each other and not go on this journey alone!


    Welcome and good luck!

    Welcome! You sound like me with the exception of my weakness being sweets (icecream paticularly!) I found this site on my IPod free apps and had no idea what it really was until I visited the site!
    I hope it is helpful to you and wish you nothing but success!!!

    You can do it girl! I hear not eating throws you into starvation mode and then you get stuck. This site is AMAZING! I hope you get all the support you need. Feel free to add me too!
