Hi My name is Court and I am 28 years old. I have lost almost 60mlbs in two years but to lose these last 14 lbs and reach my goal I finally decided to join myfitnesspal to motivate me to keep going! I do not have many support so I have done this mostly on my own.I wish I had some but I admit I was embarrassed to talk about weight to anyone. I would love some support and I am also really great at giving back support. Sometimes weight loss journeys can be lonely.
