I'm New and Concerned

Hi there,

This is my first time participating in an online program. I just started a boot camp this Monday. My body is adjusting and I am now ready to tackle my nemesis....food. I've have a strange relationship with it my whole life. Most recently, it has come down to poor portion control, as what I eat is not that bad. I am in my 30's and my mother struggled with morbid obesity for many years until she had surgery. My fear is that I end up with the same problems. I have gained 25lbs in a few months and am worried that I won't be able to shed the weight.

I am trying, but am also worried that I may go the other extreme just to get it off of me. You know things are bad when you can't even look at your own body in the mirror.

So, with that said, I would love to find a friend to help motivate me on my journey. Sharing the experience of losing weight is supposed to be helpful and I know that I deserve to help myself. Establishing balance in my life is something I want to be a priority.

Thank you for reading
