in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone! I am Janine and I am 19 I decided to join this site to get the extra help I need for this weight lost. For the past 4 years, food was a major comfort because my father leaving me, fights with my mother and my Grandmother's death this past summer. With the death, I turned to food as a way to comfort me all summer and fall and it led me to basically hit 250 in my weight. It was at that moment that I know that I had to change something about me.

I am really motivated and I would love to have some support especially during stressful times in college. Thanks You All! I 've been reading your success stories and it gives me a warm feeling that you can lose the weight.

:)

    Hi Janine! Welcome to the site. I'm new too, so I'm still trying to figure out where to find stuff on here. You can do this girl! We all can, we just have to make the right choices and know that our food addiction is something we have to get control over rather than it controlling us.

    Hi, I'm KC....glad to see you're doing something about it now instead of waiting until you are in your 40's like I did. I like this site too, and have encouraged several people I work out with to sign in, so we have a little "club" going....I think it's great we can all encourage each other, I mean we all have the same goals here....
