23 year old 5'4 looking for friends!

Hello,
My name is Jessie and I am 23 years old. I have about 70 pounds I would like to lose total. I am a shorty at 5'4. I have lost 2.5 pounds so far in my first week and can't wait to start the journey! I am looking for friends in a similar situation or maybe some who are a bit farther along for advice! I am super excited to make this change and would love to get a little support group going on here!

Thank you. :)

    Hey I'm Jessie nice to meet you! I am 25 5'4 also and need to lose 70 as well. I am new to MFP and you can add me if you want I am just getting started learning how to use everything on here. Over a year ago I lost about 20 but then after moving towns and changing jobs from working outside landscaping for a living to getting a desk job I quickly started gaining and now I've been diagnosed with PCOS with insulin resistence. So once again I am needing to buckle down and get a healthy livestyle back. I am trying my hand at blogging if you would like to read them they are nothing fancy just my thoughts LOL I wish you all the best on your journey.
