Need motivation buddies

jrochat99

I wanted to share a little about myself. I'm 37 years old and 40 pounds over weight. I gained a bit with my pregnancy and now it's been 2.5 years and I'm not any thinner. This weight loss journey has been really mentally challenging as I lose weight and gain it back, count calories and exercise and then quit over and over and over again. I really need someone who is in a similar boat as me to motivate each other. I can't tell you how many times I have tried this and failed. I just hope that one day I won't fail.

Hi! I can completely relate to your experiences that you've had with weight loss. I too am about 40 pounds overweight. I have four children and find it increasingly difficult to find time to exercise and eat right. It seems the more I keep track of what I eat the more weight I gain, lol. My current goal is to find at least 30 minutes a day to exercise. I am keeping things realistic and don't expect miracles overnight just taking things one step at a time.
