in Introduce Yourself
Listen, I gained 25 pounds within the past 8 months. (just finished nursing school). My school days were filled with on the go eating of fast food and sugary/snacks and stress on top of stress. I went on the scale and it said 199.3 pounds( okay 200 pounds). I'm 25 and I want to get back my youth. My goal weight is 125 pounds. I need a support group. I'm having issues with doing it by myself.

    I'm on the same path to lose after gaining to much. I'm in the medical field and there is always an abundance of treats around. We both can do this!

    I clearly understand... its weird I didn't start having weight issues until I left high school (115 pounds in 2008) now 200 pounds in 2016... but most of my weight gain came three years ago when I lost my baby at 5 months gestation ( the baby didn't have a heart beat)... severely traumatizing... and my body has been the same since

    Same here with the weight gain from the school term! Im now studying veterinary bioscience but am considering horse riding but am too heavy to ride any. Currently im 20yrs and am at 76kg...thats abt 168lbs. Need the support in losing weight and getting healthy. Recently ive made the switch to eating primarily fruits and vegetables. Occasionally some meat here and there. Trying out new things...Anyone cares to join me?
