Hey!

My name is Amanda and I am 21 years old. Ever since I had gotten into a serious, committed relationship at 17 years old, I had gained weight like crazy! I went from 140 pounds up to 220 pounds in 3-4 years. :( What makes it worse is that I am 5'0. It's gotten to the point where I don't even want to look in the mirror. I need help to find motivation to lose the weight that I gained so that I can make myself happy again. I want to be able to go shopping again and not have to worry or become depressed because I can't fit into clothes that I really want or like.

You are more than welcome to add me and motivation on my weight loss journey is more than welcome! :)

Amanda
