So I went a little crazy..
I entirely lost track of everything I was doing. But I'm ready to get back on it. The past few mornings I've started getting back into an exercise routine and I remember how amazing it feels to be doing something good for yourself. I can't believe I stopped for as long as I did. Though, I'm not sure about my weight at the moment as I'm in the packing process and need to buy a new scale but I am starting to feel better now that I've gotten past the binge. How is everybody else doing? :)

Support? Motivation? Please?
Well hello :)
I've struggled with weight since before I hit my teens but I've waited until recently to really, REALLY try to lose it. Of course I've done the pills, the crash diets, etc. But I've never had the results I wanted and the ones I did get, didn't stay. So now I'm in this for life. Healthy eating habits, exercise, the whole nine yards.
I'm not doing this for my appearance. Yes, I do have the days where I wish I looked like someone else or I'll look at my body and hate it. But I'm doing this more for my health. Going to the doctor recently, I was diagnosed with PCOS which 1/3 women have this and go without it being treated. I'm not going to go into entire detail about it, but pretty much it's harder to lose and keep weight off if you're not vigilant with it. And the more weight you have on you, the more difficult it is to get pregnant and are more likely to have high-risk pregnancies.
As of now, I'm too young for children, but I don't want to wait to prepare for it. So here I am, looking for support and motivation to keep at this.
17 years old.
214 lbs (as of June 21. Will be buying scale ASAP.)
Long term goal: 135
Mid-goal: 160 by 12/21 <-- 18th Birthday :)
