Hello everyone, my name is Christa. I'm an eighteen year old college student who has finally decided to do something about her weight problem. The sad part about it is that I used to be a very fit dancer, right up until I was fifteen. The pain I had from a severe neck injury in the past, eventually grew to a level that I could not bear anymore, and so I had to quit ballet, which was my passion, and something that I was going to pursue as a career. I was later diagnosed with fibromyalgia, which explained the persistent pain and ridiculous weight gain I was experiencing. Now, I'm being treated for it, and even though my feet still suffer, I'm eager to shed the pounds I gained!

I'm now down 27 pounds; eight of those were lost while using MFP, and so there is no doubt that this website is extremely helpful. However, even so, I would love to make some friends on here so we can encourage each other to meet our goals!

Thanks for listening to my inane babbling! I hope to get to know some of you, and good luck to you all on your road to good health!
