in Introduce Yourself
Hey all! I'm Sofie, and I'm a 21 year old student. I've been having trouble with my weight for as long as I can remember - years and years and years. I've never had the right mindset to lose the weight, I've failed and failed and failed.. but now I'm focused. I'm determined to change and to love myself and my body, feel confident and beautiful. I'm looking for friends for sharing support and sharing tips. Anyone out there reading this who is as much in need of a motivating, supportive friend as I am: add me!

Love,
Sofie

    I totally understand how much of a struggle losing weight can be. I think a support group definitely helps. I'll add you and we can motivate each other. :)

    Adding you - if you specifically want women friends that is fine too... either way good luck! I have really enjoyed the mutual support thing here with "friends" who are all on their own "journeys" to health.

    Hi Sophie ~

    I'm Vanessa and I've been there and done that. I too fought with my weight my whole life and didn't conquer it until I was 38...I guess it took me that long to wise up or to get truly motivated. :wink:

    Add me if you like ...I LOVE to exercise and I am big on eating your vegetables. :wink:
