in Introduce Yourself
I have been on here for awhile and don't have many friends. I am looking for friends that have something in common with me...
Me in a nutshell:

PCOS, struggle with weight, terrible self esteem, binge eater.

Would love to connect with others in the same boat as me. i feel like no one else understands how I feel...

    Just started this today! It's always nice to have support from others trying to achieve the same goals. I, too have horrible self esteem I feel like no matter how much my husband tells me I look fine, it's not good enough for me. I guess the only solution here is to get to where we feel comfortable in our skin and our bodies and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

    Hello! I do have PCOS. I have had issues with binge eating in the past, not really in the last few years, I used to have very low self esteem, I get down days still and can feel awful about myself at times, but my confidence has been on the rise lately. SO having come from, where you are, and I still am where you are now on some points, I think we'd get along fine :smile: . Feel free to add me!

    I don't have PCOS but... I do have VERY LOW SELF-ESTEEM! Trying so hard to improve on that but it's so hard when I'm dealing with it on my own, boyfriend doesn't understand so much more to it than that.. Hope to be able to find a friend on here who's kinda going through some of the same things as me.:ohwell:

    I have the same issues as you including PCOS and I know that this journey to lose weight is hard. Especially when reliant on binge eating. If you ever want to talk, add me and shoot me a message. It's better to get things off your chest then to binge.

    For me, its so hard to lose weight because I can't stay motivated; and I just want to give up and then cry and then eat and then I gain like 20 lbs and the process repeats; and I'm trying to make sure that that doesn't happen again. So if you are anything like me or just want to talk anyway; feel free to add me.

    Hello. This is my third day using this app and counting calories and I'm excited about the prospects. I, too, have PCOS and have struggled with my weight for my entire life. Reading your post was like reading my own bio. Feel free to add me and I'll be sure to add you. We need all the help we can get. For me, accountability and encouragement are key, especially for those times when I don't see the results that I want or I fall off the wagon and get discouraged.

    Iv been overweight since I was a child and just got bigger and bigger during my teenage years, so my self esteem has always been rock bottom. Even though iv lost over 40lbs my self esteem hasn't changed much at all! :( I still have many days that I just look at myself and thick yuk!
    Would love to have some friends on here that also struggle with this and keep each other motivated. And are going through the same thing,
    most if my friends are really skinny, and when I say to them 'I look really fat' or say something bad about my weight I feel like they think I'm doing it for attention or to get a compliment, but I'm really not! I love them all dearly but they don't quite understand :(

    Add me :)
