Hi everyone, I'm a stay at home Mom of 3, looking for more active friends who log daily and exercise. I'd love to add more friends that want to motivate each other and chat about our journey.

I'm 5'3 started at 165lbs and have lost 15lbs so far. I'm looking to lose another 25 and then focus on building muscle.

I have an open diary and would be happy to support you too!

    Hello! I used to be very active on here and got away from it. Far away from it. I'm starting at square one and could really use some support as well! My big motivations are this place, my Jawbone activity tracker, and not being in pain due to hypothyroidism & food sensitivities. What are yours? :)

    I've got a Fitbit on order to help better track my hr and calories burned. Im hoping that will motivate me to move more too.
    I gained a lot of weight with my 3rd child and quickly realized I couldn't coast on youth and good genetics anymore. :)
    I started having back pain due to a weak core and the extra weight I was carrying, lack of energy, etc.
    My motivation now is feeling more energetic, less back pain and being able to be active and keep up with my kids and over all mental/physical health. Seeing those drops on the scale don't hurt either! ;)

    Now I love to see my friends news feeds when they are working out, see what they are eating and get tips on how they navigate balancing family, schedules and making time for their workouts, etc.

    Happy to hear you are back and motivated! I'm sending you a friend request.

    I work from home and have three small children and a brand new puppy! This is a busy season for me for sure! I'd love some friends to stay accountable with! I have about 50lbs realistically to lose, but I'm going to say 40 by the end of November, is my goal. Giving myself a 90-day challenge!
