Hi! Very new to this weight loss journey... I’ve never been a large girl, until all of the sudden I was... and still am.. I grew up very active and as I got older I got comfortable with a sedentary lifestyle. I am a competitive cheer coach and I want to be able to keep up with my athletes. They deserve an active/healthy coach, and I deserve good quality of life! Encouragement, advice and ideas are very much appreciated :)

    Don't be scared 🙂

    I would suggest reading the Most Helpful threads pinned at the top of each subforum, lots of useful info there!

    And if anything is unclear, just ask the community, lots of knowledgeable people here.
