Hi everyone. I'm excited about the idea of being cheerleaders for one another.
I moved a year ago - 9 hours away from home - and still don't know very many people here. I have a very supportive partner at home, but she's just over 100 pounds soaking wet and can not relate to my weight struggle regardless how hard she tries. I hardly know anyone here and those I do know are not close enough to exercise with, and none of them are overweight so I always feel a little self-conscious when we're together. So, it's easy to get discouraged. I usually find an excuse to give up not very far into the fight and I need this time to be different.
Hoping to find motivation here with you all.
