Hiya!

I'm fairly new to this thing so I'm def. in need of some type of support system on here. I just recently moved to a new area w/ my husband who is in the military so it's just me and him. No family down here for us! My weight and self- esteem has def been a constant battle for me throughout my life and I have finally decided to change what I see in the mirror and how I see it! I've heard awesome things about this website so I decided to give it a try. Please feel free to add me, message me, and send me any type of words of encouragement. I def. need it since my family is over 700 miles away!! Yikes! Well anyways I'm really lookin' forward to meeting some awesome new people to help me w/ my journey and hopefully I can help w/ theirs! :bigsmile:
