Hi, My name is Lorina.
I'm 26, no kids and overweight! I'm only 5 feet tall and weigh 210 lbs! My starting weight was 222 so I have lost a few but my goal is 10 lbs a month. It has gotten hard. I'm looking for people who can motivate me on those hard days and I can do the same for you! :) I'm eating around 1200 calories a day. I have a problem with portion control. I've been weighing out my food so that does help. I don't have a problem with my stomach telling me I'm full, just my brain!

Let's be friends :)
