Hi, I'm new! I love this site and I'm so glad I now know about it!

I'm a 24 year old college student. I'm a human services major, and I want to be a social worker. But I must first help myself before I can help others! :)

I would love all the support I can get and I will give lots of support as well, so please add me!

I've got a lot of weight to lose. My first goal is to lose 50lbs, but I'd like to lose 150lbs!

I want to be beautiful for my boyfriend, even though he already says I'm beautiful.

I want to be healthy. I want to be happy. I don't want to be scared to try new things.

Please add me so we can support each other! :)

    @Sonya7597 Thank you! I will absolutely be supporting you too! This site is amazing, I'm so glad I know about it now! I've used other sites before, but they weren't as user friendly and supportive. Congratulations to you too! We can do this!

    Hi Aigean! I love your outlook and attitude! Just wanted to
    let you know I'm in your corner. :)

    hello! just added you as a friend! :) Thank you so much! I have never wanted something more in my life. I have finally found my soul mate/best friend/the only person I ever want to hug and kiss for the rest of my life, and all I want to do is be in love with him and not worry about anything else. AHH it's so frustrating being fat for many reasons!

    Good luck with your weight loss! so much support here! :)

    This is fantastic - congrats on finding your soulmate - it's a great feeling! It's hard when you find someone who loves you exactly as you are but you are still not happy with yourself. My husband keeps telling me I don't need to lolse weight, but he is supporting me anyway because he knows I need to do it for myself. All the best on your new life journey!
