Hello and thank you so much for reading my very first post. I've been lurking on these forums for a really long time. I know it's a little creepy and similar to a troll under the bridge (sort of). But I have felt so inspired by all the women and men who have taken control of their lives. And I am honestly sick and tired of my life style. I have felt so motivated after reading other people's success stories. Every time I read one, I feel celebrating with the poster. 
I am 22 and although I'm not extremely heavy, I just want to feel sexy and comfortable in my own skin. We only have one body for life, and I figure I should make the best of the one I have.

By joining these forums I hope I can find and keep my motivation with the help of all of you lovely people with similar goals.
