    I just made a post and in it, I told on myself for the first time in public that I also need to lose 100 lbs. I think that I was supposed to see your post because I asked for encouragement and in return, I should also be encouraging others. I don't go online in general except of course to fill out the diary.
    I think my first encouragement would be that you do your food diary and be honest. If you end up eating something that takes you over the top post it anyway. I struggle with a sweet tooth and almost every day I go over on the fat and sugar. Those two seem to go hand in hand. When I see the red ( on the food diary total ) it reminds me to do better the next day. So, I am really trying to do that.
    Be sure you eat at least 1000 calories per day or it won't count. You'll see the warning ( if you will ), in big lettering when you click to post.
    Take care,
    Oh, by the way, I am a grandma in her 60's. I just reread your post and saw that you are seeking young people like yourself. What I saw the first time around was your cute face and that you needed to lose 100 lbs.
    Just the same, I will say hello every now and then if that's ok with you.
