Healthier Me/ Wanting support friends

I am on my second week of my new "healthy lifestyle." The plan is for me to have the gastric sleeve surgery. I have been on a lot of diets throughout my life. I have always been overweight. I've lost weight and gained it all back. I am at the biggest I've ever been. I am so ashamed. I don't like to go out. But I can't continue to live this way. I don't have anyone I can talk with about any of this. My boyfriend tries to understand but he's never been overweight and he just doesn't get it. I am so nervous, I am scared of failing again. I've already had slip ups. If you would like a support/motivation friend please feel free to add and message me. I'd love to see what all every else is doing on their journeys as well.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

    Slip ups are not failure. They are human.

    If I didn't believe that I never would have downloaded this app, wouldn't even try.

    Don't be scared. You've got it in you to succeed.

    Saturday will be 2 weeks for me. Exercises are not a problem. I wish I had someone to grab the junk food from my hands. Feel free to add me if you want.
