Newbie

Joined myfitnesspal because I'd like some support during my weight loss journey. At 12 I became overwight, had a mother that had me on various diets throughout my childhood/teenage years because she could not understand how she could have a fat daughter when she was a size 5. I'm an adult now that wants to put that in the past, mainly I want to be healthy, Any support I can get on here would be appreciated. I'm in my late 20s and I want a health lifestyle!
