Just joined this website, my mum uses this website too and she says its successful, so i feel that i should join because it will get make me more motivated and help me loose excess weight. Im 18 years old and i know im over weight and this time i want to do something about it. I lack confidence and wear mostly baggy tops because i dont like how i look. My mum gives me support but i feel that i need more.

    Hi! Drink plenty of water and log what you eat, it's pretty easy! Definitely helping me and my confidence.

    Considering how young you are, it shouldn't take much to get you to shed some unwanted weight. Stay away from sodas!
  • Forensic: I have started to drink diluted juice as I dont like plain water, is that just as good as water or will it add to my weight?
    LaDiablesse: Hello!
    ywolfie: My mum told me the same thing, and if i act now i wont be left with excess skin. I love my Soda's so it's going to be hard for me to quit :(
