hey guys! My name is Ashley, I'm 5'5" and currently in the 170s 
, looking to lose about 30lbs. This is THE BIGGEST I have ever been and I am miserable inside and out. This time last year I had lost 25 lbs. with low-carb and using the treadmill daily. It's depressing that all my hard work went down the drain. I am looking for friends to add so we can help motivate each other and stay on track THIS TIME! Please feel free to add me! Good luck and health to everyone!

I SO know what you mean. I hate looking at myself also because it's like I don't even recognize myself anymore. But, a lot of times we are our biggest critics and the way see ourselves isn't how others see us. Don't be discouraged and let's just take it ONE day at a time. :-)

Looking for support as well so feel free to add me. I would love to keep each other motivated! I'm 5' at 150 lbs with 30 pounds to lose. Started this healthy lifestyle January 5th- my plan is to workout 3 times a week and clean eat, as much as possible at least until February 5th. I will reassess on that day and see what is working for me and what's not. Good luck everyone!0

Hi guys! I'm 5'8 I've gotten down to 163 but I can't get the scale to move! I want to be 135-140. I have hard time staying motivated when I don't see the scale move for a few weeks. I am looking for friends that we can help keep each other motived. I'm hoping the more people I have checking in with me everyday and the more I check in on them more I will stay motived. I am open for any help I can get with diet/exercise/motivation. I am trying to eat clean and my goal is to start working out 6 days a week. I would love to get back to my old weight of 138 by summer! Please help!!! 0
