Hi ! I have been on this site for about a year. I lost some weight, but then gained it back.
I have lost a good amount of weight since my heaviest ever. But I am still far from my goal!
I am trying really hard, but I need some motivation and friends on this site! I am about 25-30 lbs. overweight. I have a far way to go.
I am 21 almost 22, a college student, and these are supposed to be some of the best years of my life! When I look the best! Instead I am miserable with how I look, and hate going out with friends because I am ashamed of my body.
My family is also prone to gaining weight as they get older. It runs in my genes. The older the get the more I have to fight it! The biggest thing I am learning is self-discipline and fighting cravings.
I binged yesterday, so I am also learning that I should treat myself a little here or there, so I don't go crazy and eat everything after a week.
Please, if you guys could friend me and help me out, I would appreciate it so much!!!
All the best and good luck everyone!
