Hey all~

My name is Erick and I'm a Californian at the age of 29 years old. I've been obese my entire life and I'm trying now to finallllly take control of my weight and shed those pounds. I've started tracking calories and doing cardio/strength training. I'm looking for a support group for help with these goals!

If you're serious about trying to lose that weight and are looking for more friends, let me know :D I'd love to meet some friends and have a bit of a support group. Thanks!

~Erick

    Hello Erick!

    My name is Katie. I currently live near Cincinnati Ohio. I'm 26 (almost 27) and I've also been heavy since I can remember. I'm starting over again and would love friends and support. Feel free to add me. (:
