I've been on MFP for a couple of weeks now and i never made a post about being a new member! So! here it is! And i'll tell you all a little about myself and my weight loss journey.

First off, I am 19 years old and I'm going to be a sophmore at one of CT's top private universities (can't you tell im proud? lol). Everything seems as though it's falling into place--everything except for one thing that has become the center of my entire life: my weight. Since 8 years old I was overweight and I got worked out by my father until i was 105 lbs by the age of 12. But when he and my mom got divorced, that was it. he was really the only one who monitored my eating and my workout. Around May 2011 (the end of my freshman year) I found myself at 206 lbs! oohh boy talk about freshman 15?! nononooo more like freshman 20! im ashamed, but hey, that's what I've joined MFP for!

Hopefully, I can find some support on here from people who are struggling with the same journey that I am trying to conquer :) AND i have no friends :/ YAY MFP! :happy:
