Hi! :] I'm kinda shy, so be nice!

Options
My highest weight was 197lbs. Which is obese. My height is 5'5".

CW: 180
GW1:175
GW2: 150

I really need some encouragement! Any friends would be great!

I'm 20yrs old and am a sophomore in college.

    Welcome!! We are in the same boat - except my high weight was a about 15 pounds more than yours and I'm over 10 years older :) . But, your height, current weight and goals match mine exactly. I'd love to help support you get to where I wish I had been 10 years ago!

    I'm constantly trying to overcome my shy-side! Our goals are really similar and we're the same height. Feel free to friend me if you want. :)

    I have always been on the shy side. I am 37 and have a ways to go on my weight. Each day is a new one and each pound lost is one less to go.

    No reason to be shy here. I'm 44 and have just gotten started on this site. My daughter is your age and she struggles with weight loss/gain too. I'll support you as much as I can, feel free to add me. Good Luck, you have a lot of people behind you.
