in Introduce Yourself
Hey, all. I'm a 23 (almost 24) year old from New Hampshire. I've used this site in the past and have lost weight. Unfortunately, after every time I hit about 15 lb.s down I stop...? So here I am. Trying to try. Permanently. It's been six months since my last go at it.

I would love to have some positive friends. I'm working out and eating right to battle my depression and my propensity for binge eating. (Fear not, I have never purged). Losing weight while I try to fix my brain is just a huge plus. (Or minus, technically) :p

Please, no one with eating disorders or thigh gap obsessions. I'm looking for happy friends! :)

    Welcome back, then :) I'm new, I'm on this site just from yesterday and I haven't really understood how it works yet. I'm from Italy and I'm 19, I just want to use this site to get good tips to workout, eat healthy and organic. I'm interested in loosing a few pounds, but I mostly want to stay healthy and motivated (I'm a bit too lazy :P). If someone wants to add me, please do it! :)
    I think that at 24 you are mature enough and still young enough to reach any of your aims, you just need time and to stay positive and motivated. Sharing experiences (both good and bad) is definitely useful for this, especially against depression.
    Sorry for my bad English!

    I'm 50, and just over 200 lbs, so might not be a demographic match for your weight-loss needs.

    But--my thigh-gap obsession is finding the lunatic who invented the concept and turning embarrassing photos of his (I'm thinking it is a *man* in the fashion industry) worst physical features into a meme.

    Joking, of course, but it does make a nice fantasy, right?

    As for depression, if you haven't been checked out by a doc yet do get checked to rule out physical disorders that can mimic depression, or get antidepressants if your symptoms warrant it. Meanwhile exercise and sun exposure help some people put a dent in their lack of energy.

    Hi, I could use some friends also. I am 28 from Rhode Island. I have quite a bit to go, and I have a bad habit of giving up. But I am doing it this time. For my family and for myself. I am sending you a request!

    Hello! I could use some friends as well...my busy life after marriage left me with hardly any time for myself and I gained 40 pounds in 2 years without even noticing it. I want to take charge before it is too late and lose all the extra weight. I know it is going to be tough and a long journey.
    I am hoping shouting it out loud will help me stay on track. I intend to post my progress regularly and hope to get motivation and support from the group. I hope I will be able to give some motivation along the way.

    Good Luck to everyone in the group!!!
