Hi, I'm new with 42 pounds to lose.

Hi, I'm new here. I've used MFP before but never really seriously and my weight keeps going up and down.

Now I'm at the stage where I have stretch-marks (without being a mother!) and I feel absolutely disgusting every time I look at myself.

I met my boyfriend fifteen months ago and I've fallen into the typical comfort of a long-term relationship, particularly when we moved in together, which means matching whatever he eats and it's become clear that we have very different rates of metabolism!

I'm looking for like-minded friends to support each other, because I definitely need to be held accountable when I'm naughty with food!

    I got to the point where I too, had gotten stretch marks, that's when I KNEW I was way too fat. You can add me if you'd like. I noticed we are studying the same subjects. I'm a sociology/psychology/criminology student, I have about two years left though. I was a late bloomer when it came to being a college student.

    I'm 25 pounds down and hoping to lose 25 more. Good luck!
