  • I'm 20 as well! Been trying to get into this whole weight loss thing since I was like 15 though. Nothing has really stuck.

  • I know there's a lot of advice here already but I thought I'd let you know my thoughts too :). I used to weigh in when I was using Weight Watchers. My psyche did not like that. I've had a lot of stress in my life lately which has caused not good choices in food/overeating. My mom hid the scale from me because those 3…

  • All my workout gear is Lane Bryant. It doesn't necessarily hold everything in but they have cute stuff and I feel good when I wear it. Depending on your confidence level I'd suggest yoga pants (with thicker fabric). I don't wear them often but when I do, my legs looks bomb. Good luck!

  • I've been trying to decide if I should do this. I did Nutrisystem back when I first started this journey and it worked really well for me. It's too expensive now but I'm going to try to do at least a few 'real' meals during the week as well. I know people worry about sodium but as long as I balance I should be good right?…

  • Yeah, not the best advice considering it's like 10x harder. If the scale causes you issues like it does me. Ditch it. I get depressed and just say "Forget it" and go on a binge, then I become obsessed..It's a vicious cycle. Recently, I decided to ditch the scale. I had my mom hide it from me, and now I only focus on how I…

  • I was diagnosed when I was in 8th grade (I'm 20) I've been pretty controlled on birth control. Though recently my current formulation stopped working and the new one wasn't doing very good either. I have developed Type 2 diabetes. My insulin resistance was major and I used to have all the icky brown patches but those have…
