my boyfriend isn't very supportive of my new decision to slim down a bit. he thinks i'm beautiful as is and doesn't want me to change. at 250 lbs i don't feel beautiful and i want to do this for myself. i'm hoping some of you would like to be my new support system and give advice from time to time. if so send me a friend request. :3

    1. I think we all need friends and support so count me in!!

    2. I think your boyfriend needs to grow up and support you in your desire to be healthier, He needs to realise it's not about if he thinks you look beautiful or not.. it is about how you feel, emotionally, physically, your self confidence and most importantly your long term health.

    Welcome! I've only just started using this site again & it is great for support & motivation. It's really hard to stick with it when you don't have the support of your loved ones. Way to go for being here! Feel free to add me if you like :smile:
