in Introduce Yourself
Hi guys, my name is Anna, I'm 22 and I have to lose 75kgs.

I'm overweight as long as I can remember. In my family I am the chubbier one and it always made ​​me extremely uncomfortable. There's always someone who is talking about how I need to lose weight or about a new diet that I should try. I never liked eating in public, because I always had the impression that others are watching me eat, as if I were eating a whole person or something.

I'm tired of feeling this way all the time, so I decided that I have to change. I went to a nutritionist and I already have a meal plan for the coming months, which is making me very excited! She also told me about the MFP, so I decided to join the site.

I hope to make new friends during my journey (which will be quite long). I do not intend to give up on recovering my health!

    Hello all. I've been on here almost a week and I love it. Reading all the topics and comments and seeing how far some of you have come. I get even more inspired each day I log on. I look forward to preparing my meals and seeing how many calories/carb/fats and sugar are in things. It really makes me focus on what I'm putting into my body. I've talked to some really supportive people on here and need all the support I can get. Positivepatti, I'm glad you joined me on this site and hope that come August we will be enjoying our new bodies on the beach in Miami celebrating our success and my 40th birthday...LET'S ROCK THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hello Anna. I am also new hear. I know all about being over weight. I have been that way most of my life also. Have a very thin sister. Had to hear the same things you did growing up. I have tried a lot of diets but nothing worked until I talked to a nutritionist. She is helping me with menu planning and exercising. I have been dieting for 2 months now. I have had my ups and downs but for the most part feel I am doing ok. Hope you get the support you need here. You may add me if you would like. I am not sure how to do that. Good Luck. You can do this!:happy:
