Hi all my real name is Sarah and I am joining this forum because I'm looking for some support! And this forum just rocks, right!? =). I am looking to change my life, although I am still very young.. I feel I have wasted so much time of this precious life doing NOTHING for myself and EVERYTHING for other people. It is time for that change.. to better myself, to truly learn to love myself.. to.. the list could go on. I need to do this.. I need to loose weight. I want to be happy! I just have a short story of things that have gone on in the past few years...

The past few years I have not taken care of myself like I now know I should have... I allowed the person I was with to continuously call me names that were just crazy , things I am NOT! Anyway.. after being called these horrible names over and over, they started to stick with me. Now that I think of it I have went through a great deal of stress, and have gained near 100 lbs in the past year and a half. I have never been this big. I weigh 250 right now but about a month ago(before I got out of the relationship) I weighed 270 I'm sure. Just from being away from this person I feel like I can start over. I have lost weight, and I am already starting to feel free again, and am learning to be my own person. It's amazing that I can say this because it has been hard.. a great deal of heartbreak, and it's hard to care for someone so much and them not to care for you the fraction of what you care for them. I am a rambling person so bear with me please... anyway I am looking to loose this weight I want to be around 170lbs.. I know I can do it, it's just going to take time and some extra motivation! Thanks for reading this I really appreciate it! Just wanted to do a little intro. :)
 
Hi Sarah and welcome :)

Sorry to hear about your past relationship. Good that you got out of it. Nothing worse than a destructive relationship. You are on the right track coming here. I am new myself (but not new to changing). Everyone here is really nice and you will get all the motivation you need.

Just stick with it and think about what you will be like a year from now. Even, what you will be like in a few months. Change happens gradually. Again, welcome :)
