I have hated my body my entire life, always seaking out its imperfections. I wish I could have loved myself 20 years ago, 10 years ago, 5 years ago... I. Am. Done. I am on a journey of self love. My first major goal is 19 pounds, my second is an additional 40lbs after that. My journey starts today and I would love some amazing people with a sense of humour to help support me along the way! Added bonus, I’ll be in your corner too!! ;)

    Welcome to MFP. I learned very late in life long lasting good things tend to come after we learn to love ourselves. Without self love it is very hard to love others for some reason.

    I’m new too. Joined 1st March and already 10 lb down. Slightly more than I wanted to loose per week but the drastic change is the cause. Good luck.

    I was the same and then I realized at 5'2" and 185 pounds something had to change! I have slipped the last couple of years but am now back at it. You can do it!

    Hi
    I'm in the same boat. Finally taken the first step today. I'm hoping with help I can do this. I've tried before but always been alone so going to try and do it with hopefully new friends. I'm usually the one that has everyone laughing but I seem to be looking my funny bone and I really don't want to.
    Hoping we can help each other
