Hi Everyone looking to join this thread. Imbalance at it again with this app. Just starting today looking for motivational support and friends. I get no support at home instead I get told dieting makes me cranky here you should eat more donuts. I'm a married mother of 2 ... Which anyone with kids knows it makes dieting that much harder. But I'm determined to fight for my health and to look better in clothes. I'll accept any friend requests.

    Man, eating better usually makes me far less cranky. I'm sure as a mother of 2 having some time to go to the gym is difficult, but if you can swing it, I'd definitely suggest lifting weights. Nothing elevates my mood more and keeps me motivated to eat better than seeing a little progress. As someone that's lost weight and gained it back, that has been the biggest factor to help me stick with things despite my partner not always eating something in the same caloric ballpark as myself.

    Also, people trying to get you to eat junk food while knowing you are trying to eat healthier are intimidated by your wanting to better yourself. Look upon them with pity.
