In need of support

Nikki31104 · August 2012

I have always felt bad about my weight. In high school I was a size 8 and sadly I thought that was fat. All my high school friends were tiny. Now I am a size 16 and I want to be an 8 again. My family doesn't offer a ton of support because they think I am fine just the way I am. I joined MFP about two weeks ago and I really love the support everyone gives. I need more support. I would love more friends because that means more support.

Hi!

Sounds like we are pretty similar... I am also a size 16, looking to get down to a size 8/10 ... but i dont want to push it if thats not even attainable anymore!

I'd love to buddy-up, that's the best thing about the site... more buddies, more help, more success!

I never even thought that it might not be attainable. I am going to try my best. I wanted to lose 20 pounds by my birthday but that is only 8 days away and 15 pounds. But I will take the weight I have already lost and run with it.

You can do it no problem! MFP turned out to have a great support system. I'm currently in my own funk after losing some weight and for the past 3 weeks I can't shake it.

I began as a size 18 and I'm now a 14 and 40 lbs lighter. You and I have the same exact high school story.

I'll add you and hopefully we can do this together!

I have been doing the Body by Vi shake for 2 months with no results. As soon as I joined MFP I started seeing results. I love the support I get here.

Hi I just started here a couple of days ago. I to had the same problem in school. I went so far as anorexia/bulemia for a bit. I never thought I was skinny enough. I think it stems from childhood and what I was taught. Feel free to add me also. I am on daily.

Friend request sent! I need major motivation also and I dont get that at home, at all. Others on here, feel free to add me! I also think that its beneficial to have an open diary. It's a great way to get meal ideas from others! Good luck!
