Hello! My name is Danielle. I am a 21 year old college student from New Orleans, Louisiana. I've had a really serious procrastination problem in the past few years as far as my weight-control is concerned. I've always used the excuse "I need someone's help" along with every other excuse in the book. I've recently been through a lot with the Hurricane and I'm trying to get my life back together - I'd like to start off right. In the past 4 years I've gained more than 50 lbs and I find it sickening...I currently weigh 190, however about a year ago, I weighed as much as 210. It's slowly going down but I really want to work hard at not only losing weight, but becoming much more physically active than I am and have been. My weight goal is 140 lbs and being 5'4", I think this is 'do-able'.
I joined this group because it seems like a place where I can find out more information on healthy weight loss and promoting a healthy lifestyle. I became a vegetarian 3 months ago and I've had so much more energy since then...
Anyway - to make a really long story short, I'm sick of waiting around for the weight to come off - I need to be proactive about it and I aim to reach my goal. I'm hoping to find a weight loss buddy or two....or maybe even just have the medium to vent my frustrations...I look forward to chatting, learning, and shedding unwanted pounds with you!
