Hey everyone-
I'm Laura, 27 yrs old and just joined MFP as an alternative to weight watchers. In the past 3 years or so I have gained about 40 lbs and really need to get my body back to a happy place.

It would be great to get a core group of support here as I know that is what has helped me in the past!

Happy Tuesday!

    I am in the same exact boat! I have about 30 or so pounds to shed until I can feel comfortable in my own body again. I hope I can make it there!
    With a little support, I believe we can all do it!
