Teen weight loss

Hi! I’m 18 and staring my journey toward losing weight! I am right now 265 and hope to be 240. I won’t stop at 240, but that is my goal! If there is any other teens on here that need motivation or can give me some motivation just reach out!!

    I'm not a teen, I'm a mom of teens!! But just admired your reaching out and using MFP to get healthy. Remember it's the little daily habits that will add up to success... Walk a little more often, make better food choices and drink lots of water. Having a friend or community member to check in with is a great idea too, for support. Wishing you all the very best!!

    Good luck! Bumping the discussion for you. I appreciate that you're making smaller goals and looking for friends to get started! You and the kitten are both super cute <3

    My teen and I just started our weight loss journey. My daughter want to lose 50 pounds. My first step is to lose 50 pounds myself. Good luck on the journey. Feel free to add me if you would like support.
