I am new here and I just wanted to say hi! I have been the same size range for almost 15 years--and while there are moments of contentment...overall I am not happy at this weight/size. I am creative and nice and...I can even be kinda funny--but I carry around these extra pounds and constantly battle the insecurity that comes with them. I think having some friends on here would help--I also have PCOS, so if you carry that I would esp. love to hear from you. It is hard to feel feminine and pretty with that disease.

(ok, I kinda feel like the new fat kid in class asking you guys to be my friend...but, it is what it is)

    Hello there!

    I understand what you're saying. Being overweight can sometimes hurt our self esteem. And while I don't have PCOS, I know many people who do, so I do understand. I have Fibromyalgia, and medications and lack of energy have gotten me to where I am now, quite overweight. But I'm working on it, and you can do! Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like....we can help and support each other! :)

Feel free to friend me but I need to say that I am a tolerant but non god fearing *kitten*, who swears and cusses and who has the most fabulous set of mfpals u are welcome to join them if you so desire. The very best of luck anyway!
