I started trying to get healthy after I found out the I had a Pulmonary Embolism (blood clot in my lung)0

22 here. I just want to be healthy and happy . I'm feeling a lot better since I stopped overeating and started exercising.0

I started because my teen years were spent hating myself and my weight and my rock bottom was kinda seeing that I was wasting my youth sitting inside wishing I had more confidence and knowing my lack of confidence was due to my poor body image. So I started using MFP to count my calories and I set up a deficit. Thank god I found MFP because if I hadn't I would be eating only diet foods and eventually falling back into bad habits. I'm new to this so I haven't lost more than a couple pounds but it's enough to keep going.0

I agree, having a good body does wonders with confidence. Its not even about the image though, its just like the lifestyle of eating healthy and exercising that gives me such a good positive feeling. Rock bottom for me was drug addiction and living like a savage. lol that life was crazy. overeating and not exercising is very comparable to the life of a drug addict.0

22, joined when I was 19 (this site). I haven't met my UGW, but I have maintained at a lower weight. What made me want to lose weight was when I thought I'd try out C25K, I jogged for ONE MINUTE, and was OUT OF BREATH for ONE HOUR. I knew I was totally out of shape and needed to make a change, because there was no reason for someone like myself- no health problems- that at 19 couldn't at least JOG for one minute.0

Anyways, I am 21 and just trying to get a great body. Im sick of my belly fat.0

We can definitely still relate You're doing this not only for yourself but for someone you love, and there's nothing un-relateable about that. You go Girlie!0 -
