Hey there. My name is Amy, and I'm a 17 year old from the heart of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I live on my own with my boyfriend and another male roommate, both junk food junkies with a high metabolism, which probably explains all the weight I've gained since April.
Recently, I pulled a dress out that I absolutely adored that I only wore once, which was on the opening night of a play that I was in. I figured I wanted to wear it again, if even just around the house.
At a size 14, I was extremely disappointed to find that I couldn't get the zipper done up. Since then, I've been reminiscing about the times when I fit into a size 6.
So here is my goal. I'm currently 5'2, and last I checked, I weighed somewhere between 165 and 170 lbs. When I moved in, I was 145 lbs. I'd like so very much to get back to that, and I'd just love to keep my winter weight off.
However, I'd like to keep my intent to lose weight from my boyfriend. I want him to notice it without me having to say anything. So that is why I joined here. It'd be nice to have the support of other people who are doing the same thing I'm doing, and who are struggling just as much as I am.
So, hello. =)

When you have time you'll want to check out the stickies, there's lots of great info there. There's also a journal section where you can start your own and we can all swing by and visit with you. This forum has helped me so much already and like you said, it's nice to be able to talk to people who understand. Alot of us are still on the journey but there's many people here who have already succeeded and still post and give support. Check out the before and after thread and you'll see what I'm talking about
