This is my story ❤️
I use to be in excellent shape, never having an issue with weight. My problem began this last semester of my senior year. I noticed that I started gaining weight very suddenly, especially around my thighs. I attend a very difficult university and I was under more stress than anyone should ever have to go through. I began to have self confidence issues when my thighs developed huge dark stretch marks, I once had someone ask me if I had a disease! Now I never wear shorts when I use to be the girl running around in short shorts. I want to experience the freedom of wearing shorts again without looking diseased with stretch marks. If that situation wasn't bad enough with the diseased comment, my fiancé is a Marine! He is in very good shape and goes to the gym 7 days a week, he just doesn't understand stress weight and how females gain weight differently. I'm looking for motivational and positive friends to help me throughout my adventure! Feel free to add me

Aw I'm sorry to hear that. Sounds like it could have been the end of puberty. Have you tried bio oil?0

I can completely understand where you are coming from. I was there a couple of years ago. I finally had my "snap out of that moment" in March of this year. I used to be a "people pleaser" all a while forgetting about "myself". It's time for your health to come first. This is for YOU. Since my mindset and priorities have changed, I have lost 18 lbs in exactly 3 months. It's exhilirating!! It's a struggle at times, but I wake up and remind myself... "this is for ME". Feel free to add me! Melissa~0
