Looking for people to inspire me an push me along

Hi my names Kate, im new to this, iv had alot of negativity in my life about my weight, been called names since I was a kid, i always ignored it an just played the role of the jolly fat girl, i always tried being positive, but this past few years have weighed a toll on me, iv had alot of negative intake sadly from people i love, my family members, yes people i joke about my weight to help cope, it doesnt mean i want you joking about it with me, iv lost all self esteem an all love for myself, my daughter is about the biggest joy of my life mostly because i know she loves me for me, not for how i look I AM HER MOMMY, but i dont want my daughter growing up to be like me, i want her to be healthy an enjoy being healthy, i want her to be proud of her mommy ... so to conclude this Id like to ask for help, from some of you, i need encouragement and advice on how to stay healthy ,happy, and positive, and i wouldnt mind some friends that know what i am going through as well!!

    You come to the right place then. You will definitely fined tons of people going through the same thing that will inspire you and help keep you on the right track. When you having one of those low moments just remember why you started this and I always keep in mind that you either have to suffer the pain of discipline or suffer the pain of regret! Remembering that always keeps me moving forward.

    I am all about trying to inspire others to eat healthy, exercise, and just feel good about any small changes or goals they may accomplish! I have struggled with yoyoing for years! This time I am determined to lose the fat, gain muscle and feel better! So I am here for you if you are here for me!
