Hi,
I am struggling with weight. I have been for the last 3-4 years. My goal is not to be skinny but rather to be in shape and healthy. I am 23 and a recent college graduate. I have a very supportive boyfriend, family and friends but I feel I need support from people who are going through the same thing & of course I, too, could support. I hope everyone succeeds!
