So i've joined my MFP to lose the weight that I have gained over the years...I use to be a size 10 but since losing my job I haven't been active at all and now my weight has crept up to a size 16.. pushing on to an 18 :( however, I'm now in work and determined more than ever to get back to the size I was. The worst part for me is the stretch marks, i hate them, at 22 they make me feel really self conscious and there on my stomach, legs and breasts...so i'm hoping that when I lose weight maybe the stretch marks become less noticeable. I hope I can meet some nice people on here as doing this alone would be hard!

Thank you for reading

  • Hello! I am too have the stretch marks all over. They are becoming less visible (more pink in color.) Good luck. I love MFP! It's nice to have encouragement from others who are in the same boat!
  • Thats great that they are becoming less visible! I hope mine do too :) MFP is brill, and exactly everyone on here is in a similar situation so we all can help each other xx
