Hello I am Duga,
I am 21 years old and I recently discovered that I am obese. I know I can lose the weight if I really put my mind too it. I have been trying really hard but with being newly 21 and all I am having a hard time finding a balance between going out with friends and dieting.

    Welcome. Tracking your food and drinks so that you can make adjustments as needed. Exercise has really started to help me and I don't feel so tired all the time. Add friends for support and motivation, it really helps me.

    Good Luck,

    Todd

    Welcome! It's hard but instead of looking at it as a diet, look at it as a lifestyle change. This is an excellent tool that you will find helpful if you track accurately. Also, I suggest going to a nuturitionist to get a better understanding of how to 'eat.' I have been overweight my whole life and until I met with a nutriionist and started tracking my food, I didn't find success. Good luck in your journey!
