in Introduce Yourself
I'm Amanda and I'm 22 years old.

I decided to join this site after many many many failed attempts at losing weight.

I used to have a cute figure but then I got married and got comfortable and let myself go yada yada. I got quite lazy and I partied a lot. Now the marriage is ending (good thing, turns out he was a jerk) and I want to get myself back to the way I was before and be happy in my own skin so here I am. I've recently quit drinking completely because I know it will help me shed the pounds faster. And I'm hoping this site will help me keep track of my eating and maybe find some inspiration and support :)

So thats my story :) thanks for reading!
