    Hope everyone is having a great day! I know weekends are hard for me so let's remember why we are doing this.
    Also remember, your will power is only so strong. Don't set yourself up for failure plan ahead of time.
    We got this!

    My reasons:
    1) I'm tired of shopping for clothes in the "women's" or "plus-size" section. It's a new (and annoying) experience for me and I want out.
    2) I'd like to maybe enjoy the beach again.
    3) And finally I want to stop hiding behind people in photos.

    Joining in late too but I am in need of people who are serious about doing this as well and I'm liking the vibe in this thread!!

    I'm loosing weight because:

    1. I've been a very poor diabetic for the past 10 years. Not horrible but not very good either and I want to get healthy.
    2. I'm getting married in November and while I won't have lost it all I'll have lost some!
    3. I want to have children and as a diabetic the chance for miscarriage is incredibly high but having good control over your blood sugars and weight helps a lot!
    4. I'm confident I how I look right now, but I'm not healthy and I want to get healthy that's the goal!

    I'd love some friends on here so please add me and I'll add you back!

    day 363 has arrived. Is everyone logging and challenging themselves to get their water in? Today's challenge just be happy and try to stay positive all day. Go out of your way to make a stranger smile.

    I'd like in! Today's goal is a good one for me. I'm trying a no complaining for seventy two hours challenge. (If it's not asking for help or problem solving, or a simple statement of feeling "I'm frustrated with x", it's probably a complaint and not helpful to my mood, so time starts over.) I'm usually pretty positive, so I'm looking forward to getting off the grumpy train. My first yay me is that I've tracked multiple days in a row for the first time in a way long time.

    I'm in.

    Reasons for losing
    1. Being a better role model for my kids
    2. Relieving pain in feet
    3. Better/cuter clothing options
    4. Feeling proud of myself again

    I'm in! My 3 reasons are:
    1. To feel sexy wearing lingerie for my new husband.
    2. My biggest irrational fear is to be on the show I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant because I am so heavy I wouldn't notice the weight gain.
    3. To be able to wear high heels and not look like an elephant on stilts.

    Ok, guys I created the group page for easier discussions. There was only one member I wasn't able to invite and I will PM her in a minute. otherwise I think I added everyone. If I missed you, please let me know. It wasnt intentional. So I am going to copy and paste the top three specific motivators from eveyone that has posted so far for this weeks homework, due by Tuesday. Hope everyone is having an amazing weekend. I am celebrating my 2 year wedding anniversay and it has been wonderful so far. :D

    I totally get that shopping in the women's or plus size section sucks. I just want cuter clothes and undies!!
