Good day all!!! My name is Selena and today is the second day of the what I plan to be a good time in my life. My goal is to lose 40 by October and be healthy and fabulous. The 40 pounds is my short term goal. I will set another once I reach this one. I wish you all the best of success with your personal journey. I am so happy to have found this app!!!!

Slow and steady wins the race, Selena! It takes a LOT of work to lose weight, but you have a positive mindset and an achieveable goal, especially giving yourself 6 months to lose those 40 lbs. I've lost 24# since mid-January myself, and see no reason to stop what I'm doing. As long as you keep a positive mindset, you can do it!0

Selena, I can't wait to read your post in October and see your next goal. You are stronger then you think and by setting a 6-month goal I believe you're setting yourself up for success! Day by day - do the best that you can. You for this!0
