i'm ronnie. i've been here before and since then i have had a boyfriend for a year, and quit smoking. needless to say i packed on some pounds, 17 to be exact. so now i am trying to exercise every other day and mostly watch my calories. i joined a gym and finally got an iPod. i may even eventually get into cooking, which i was never into. i've had weight issues my whole life, i was never very big, but i always saw 10x bigger when i looked in the mirror, still do. from what i've read on here so far, it seems like me getting to the weight i want to be (110) might actually be something possible, not just a dream. i'm just looking for friends, support, and help.
