I'm lucky to have found this site! I'm sadaf, a 22 year old female. My weight gain was due to being molested for many years as a child.. but I've decided that I won't let my past dictate who I am now. I started this 'lifestyle change' on june 30th, since then I'm down 6 pounds! Im trying to stay motivated, i have a blog for those who have tumblr mine is uncurvy-motivation.tumblr.com. I'd love to interact and get to know some of you, its hard being on this journey alone.

Lots of love and luck to all of u!

    I think you've made the most positive decision you could already and that is that you cannot let the past dictate who you are. The past is the past and all you can do now is live the present and forge the future. Set realistic but challenging goals and keep challenging yourself and you'll see results in no time. That formula actually works for many areas not only food or exercise.

    Welcome to MFP and Enjoy.
