    Friends needed for motivation

    edited November 2024 in Motivation and Support
    Hello, I'm Mahroukh and i'm 18 years old. I have previously lost about 22 pounds more than two years ago. After that, everything has kind of just gone downhill. I went into depression, started gaining weight.. I didn't gain back as much, but I had never lost enough to begin with. My goal right now is to lose 24 pounds. I find it hard to stay motivated so I joined MyFitnessPal hoping to change that. I want to increase my self-esteem since it is horrible right now. I want to be confident. I want to be able to shop without wondering if this dress will fit me or look good on me. I want to be able to show off my arms instead of hiding them because i'm ashamed of how fat they are. I want to improve my attitude towards life, prove to myself that i'm capable of so much more than I think. I want to be optimistic and healthy, and, I want to live. If you think you can help motivate/support me, please do add me. Let's do this together! :)

      Feel free to give me an add (goes for anybody). Although I have great friends, my activity feed on mfp isn't entirely too active at times, so Im always looking to add extra friends and expand the support circle. The more the merrier!
