Hey u guys, am rafiq. I just turn 30 recently and realise that am missing alot in life for a good part of my life i've been prison in this fat infested body of mine. Being obese come with its side effect of depression. Am the only one in my family and social surrounding that is obese, i aint got anyone that can motive me or understand what am going thru. I wanna change for the better, i realise that am the only person that can do it. I want a chance in life and live like everyone else. I wanna travel and see the world and marry the person i love. Yeah thats the simple old me. Help me out people.

    Hi Rafiq! Welcome! Getting started is the hardest part. That's when you realize exactly what you've been doing. Once that shock is over, you can get down to the task of making the changes you want to see. Have some patience (okay, a lot of patience). I strongly suggest taking some before pictures along with measurements. The scale lies to us sometimes, so it's nice to have other metrics to measure your progress.

    hey Rafiq, welcome to MFP. I actually joined this site to lose weight I gained during a years-long episode of depression, and I'm always happy to get in touch with others who are enduring the same struggle. Feel free to add me if you want friends!
