Hello, My name is Sereya, I don't have the greatest support group, my family believes in old fashion "Tough Love" and hopes that the harsh words will eventually change me but it really tears me down and most days I give up. So I'm looking for compassionate people who would like to LIFT others and be a positive part of my life.

    Hi Sereya. I'm sorry that your family isn't realizing that the tough love way isn't helping you. But through all things we get stronger. you can do this!
    I had lost almost 60 ponds about 2.5 years ago on the herbalife and exercising diet, than i met my boyfriend and gained it all back, i am trying to loose it again, the precious time was easy cuz i had my best friend right there with me the whole time, and this time I'm in a new city and dont really know anyone or have places i know are safe to walk. So i am trying to stay positive, some days are harder than others, but i know I've done this before and i can do it again.

    Hi Sereya - Putting yourself out there and asking for support is risky and therefore admirable that you are doing it. Way to go! And way to go on taking the steps to become more healthy. Being positive and kind to yourself is also a really important step. We often are harder on ourselves than anyone else could be. But it sounds like you have plenty of people being hard on you. So I just wanted to offer some words of encouragement and tell you that you are recognized for everything you've accomplished so far. Good luck as your journey continues!
