Hey everyone,

My name is Annie and I'm new to the site. My goal is to lose 17lb before 6/15, my graduation. I want to wear a pretty dress under that gown! I've been trying to lose weight all my life, but this time I'm going to lose that fat once and for all! I want to feel good about myself and feel sexy for once. Please add me as your friend. We can cheer each other one. :D

    It's great that you are wanting to start some new habits before you graduate - my advice is not to get completely hung up on the numbers but use it as an opportunity to establish great eating and exercise habits that you can keep up for the long term. This way you will not only look and feel fabulous at your graduation, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you are going to stay that way.

    Wow, thanks for all the warm replies! I'm loving this site so far. All of my friends are skinny, so I've never been able to find a fitness buddy. I think I can really do it this time with all the support from people! Hopefully, by the end of it, I'll not only be skinny, but also fit & healthy.

    Btw, how do I add the "lost x pound!" thing at the end of my posts? I think those are so cool. :laugh:
