It's been a few years since I've used this site. I have been lifting for 6 years now, and continue to struggle with weight gain. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, hypothyroidism and a connective tissue disorder, all of which come with other complications. I have gained about 15lbs since starting a new medication and got back on this site for a little motivation to help lose it.

I have so much more confidence and self esteem since I have started losing weight.
