in Introduce Yourself
Hello everybody!
I've been struggling with my weight gain for the past 2 years & I've had MyFitnessPal for about a year (if not more). I definitely avoided filling out my food diary because I am one of those people who has "comfort food" & well, I am ready to get my life back on track!:smile:

A little bit about me!(:
I am 20 years old & 5' 1.5" (yes, that half an inch IS very important lol :smile: ) I began at 195 pounds & am now at 190.5 pounds; not bad for this first month!(: My goal weight is between 120-130 pounds(wherever I feel most comfortable:smile: )

I am looking for some positive, active friends (preferably girls!) who are losing weight as well(: How much weight doesn't matter as long as you're positive & want some motivation! :flowerforyou:

I am really into scrapbooking, reading, writing poetry/stories, drawing, & daydreaming!;) lol My head's definitely in the clouds a lot of the time & I am a free spirit; I feel like that's helped me stay determined(:

Since I like to take on projects, no matter how big or small, I have made some charts to help me "visualize" my weight loss(: One is a graph of my starting weight & my goal weight, & another is a chart with my "rewards" every time I lose 10 pounds (by rewards I mean a pair of earrings, shoes, T-shirt, makeup). Just thought you'd find that interesting! :smile:

So go ahead & send me a friend request with a message about yourself!(: :flowerforyou:

    Hi,
    Friend request sent.
    My name is Yvette and you can reach your goals we have to fight for our happiness, because everyone deserves to be and feel happy. I have battled being obese all my life. Losing weight and gaining it right back. I started at 227lbs and my current weight is 164 lbs. I am striving to meet my goal and lose the last 14 lbs of my weight, but I know that I have to continue this lifestyle forever if I don't want to ever return to the old me. I am on here a lot to keep myself motivated and give support and encourgement. Lets encourage and help one another on this weightloss and fitness journey to a healthier us. :smile:
