Hey I'm back and just going to give you a bit of a background to me!
Well firstly I'm from 'rainy' England, so I would be happy to talk to anyone else from there, (and of course the rest of the world!)
I'm 20, but nearly 21 and I need to lose a lot of weight. Last year I joined this board and lost around 30lbs, most of which I have put back on - well about half of them. All of a sudden I lost the will to lose weight, and just saw the bad food and wanted to eat it!!
I just need to find my motivation, and I know that all you kind people going through the same thing can help me.
Another thing that being so overweight has made me feel so unattractive. I'm shy as it is (surprisingly after seeing this rant) and don't get me wrong, I know some of the bigger women can be so beautiful, but I just seem to find people putting me down at every corner. Instead of turning to people like them when I am bored or upset or FOOD - (which I usually do) I hope you'll be able to give me the support and mostly PUSH I require.
I'd never usually tell anyone how big I am, but it's so refreshing to know there are others out there!
Thanks to you all, I know I can do this!
Leah.
ps. My current weight is - 248lbs!

Welcome back to the board Leah.. we'll do our best to support you on your journey. Everybody gets tired with trying to lose weight at some point... especially that it's such a long process for us and it needs us to change a lot of our habits... which is not always as easy as it sounds because it took years to gain those eating habits and we're trying to change them in a much shorter period of time.
I'm glad you decided to continue with your journey now...
