in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone,
Im 24 years old and I have two daughters. I am on here to get motivation and support on my new journey towards wellness.
I come from a long line of obesity, addiction, and all of the health problems that stem from them. I want to show my daughters you can do it right the first time!
I dont know much about working out and will probably spend a lot of time in the exercise forms :)

    Well I got my account 5-6months ago now. It took awhile to take off, but the weight is coming off. The one thing we all have is time. I find support, movies, drawing and portioning works for me. I think it is how much you eat not what you eat. Of course don't live on sugar alone for a month but you know what I mean. I adore pasta meals so I portion it all out.
    If you overeat just put it down and don't freak if the scale goes up, it will not stay more than a pound up. Just getting through your body.
    Everything will go great. Good luck on your journey, we will all be here to support you.

    hello everyone :) My name's Gemma and I weighed myself for the first time in about a year today, was extremlly horrified to see that I have ballooned to 175lbs. So I've decided it's time to do something about it, I'm 21 and would like a stable relationship but how am I meant to do that if I don't love myself first?
    So here I am, about to start on the long road to fitness and being healthy :)

    Welcome. It is best done as a long, slow gradual process even though you'll want to and will likely see some fast and immediate benefits. You will find many people who are quite supportive and who can give you insights from their own journey. And you've taken the most courageous step of all...announcing you are here for results.
