Hello :) my names Tiffany and I have already come pretty far in my weight loss journey. My highest weight just fresh into college was 253 pounds, and I now stand at 170. I've been swaying back and forth between 160 and 170 for probably about a year. I need to get focused and get my mind set back on track to finally reach my goal! I welcome anybody who wants to chit chat over weight loss struggles

    Its a struggle but well worth it. Congrats on the weight loss. I cant say exactly what my starting weight was because i was terrified of scales. I have pics though, and Im pretty sure I was over 400 lbs. Its embarrassing to say but i need to accept the fact that I was eating my life away.

    Its been a long long process that I went through alone and mostly through starvation and no exercise. I joined here because of recent heartbreak. I didnt want to fall apart and go back to my old ways, so I came here looking for help. It was the best decision Ive made so far. The best thing Ive learned is that Im not alone, and that makes a world of difference.

    If you have any questions, never be afraid to ask. Check out the groups too. Youll be surprised what you can find. Goodluck

    I'm up for chit chat. I'd lost a bit of weight before I found this site but I was struggling with reaching my goal.
    I'm here for support and encouragement, so definitely add me. : )
