Hi my name is Jessica. I'm 30 years old looking to lose 100+ . finally found the motivation and determination I needed to get started. Went to sit down in a restaurant and barely fit oh the humiliation. But thankfully found the motivation I needed no more yoyo for me. Stopped all sodas and sweets the past week. Have lost 11 pounds very happy. Walking 2 miles a day also. Just looking for friends when the days get tough

    Pretty much got embarrassed that I had to squish into a seat in front on a bunch of people and it took me to my breaking point. Food was comfort to me especially after my ex husband starved me for a year. But I found the will to change and that was it I was ready it didn't matter who else wanted it for me I had to want it. I'll help motivate if you need it :)

    My goal right now is 25lbs, but long term is 100 lbs. I'd love to have some friends who can relate. I am excited to get started.
