in Introduce Yourself
Hi, my name is Danielle and I'll be 19 next month. Stats: Height: 5'2" SW: 180 CW: 160 GW: 135-140 UW: 130

I've had this since Febuary, and from Febuary to June I lost 20 pounds. I went to graduation parties and decided not to worry about what I ate. However, since then, I can't get back into the discipline and determination I once had.

So if people want add me who are encouraging and inspirational, I'd greatly appreciate it!

    Hi I know exactly what you mean I can definitely relate sometimes we lose focus and let go but the best thing is when we realize quick enough and catch ourselves from falling ... It's not too late ..we are all here to support and motivate each other
    We are at a similar weight and our goal weight is pretty close

    Feel free to add me :)

    It's good to know when we lose focus we are able to pick ourselves up and have the courage to carry on
    Some people just give up ....... Never knowing their real strengths and getting the opportunity to experience their achievements/accomplishments we all go through tests
    But it's great to see we MFP members have hope and we are brave enough to let others know we've fallen off the wagon and we're to reach out for motivation and support That's the first step to success -- "Small changes lead to big results"

    I think you are doing great just being on here. Feel free to add me. We all need to encourage each other because we are all here for the same reason. You are at such an exciting a wonderful age and have so much to look forward to. The most important thing is not the number on the scale, but having faith in yourself. You can do this!
