Need motivation/inspiration just starting out

jab1012

Hello, my name is Jeannie and am just starting out and would like to lose approximately 80 pounds. I am 51 years old and having hard time losing weight. Would welcome friends, support and any advice you may have.

Take a before picture! Take one today/ASAP so you can look back on your triumph and show others it can be done. Double check the amounts you are adding to your food diary (1 oz versus 1 piece or 1 cup).

I'm right there with ya... I'm Jessica and I had a baby 4 months ago so I'm wanting to lose weight and feel better about myself ... I'm also single so mayb it will help me with finding someone for me... anyway I'm clueless about where to begin... I hate water and my mind goes blank when trying to cook healthy I just need help

Hi! I'm just starting today too and we have really similar stats. I'm 48 and would like to lose about 80 lbs. too. Maybe we can motivate each other?
