I have been trying to lose some weight for a while but i am having a hard time staying motivated. I need to hold myself accountable and some friends for support or who are trying to do the same thing. I don't have anyone around me who will do it with me. I have been feeling very depressed and down in the dumps about myself and my body. I am 5'5 and I weight 146 lbs my goal is to lose 15 pounds in 3 months. I have started and stopped so many times. And I would just really like some people to help me stay more motived. I know I can do It I can be really determined and driven when I want to be. But lately I have just been gaining more weight and that has only made me want to give up every time.

    You've come to the right place. The mfp community is so supportive and helpful. My suggestion is you take it one day at a time and remember you are doing this for YOU!! Let me know how I can help support you
