I've been overweight my entire life. I just turned 28 I weigh 230lbs and I set a realistic goal of weighing 150lbs before I'm 30. I always flake on diets though and would love encouraging friends to add.
Thanks!
Erica

Hi Erica,
You've got this!
I try to look at it as eating this way for life. Once we reach our goal weight we will still have to count every calorie, hopefully there will just be a few more calories to count:).
best of luck!

You can add me if you wish! I'm entering grad school and have yo-yo'd my weight since I was small. Just getting back into MFP after some set backs. I flake too, so having friends to help get you through a tough time is something I completely understand! I wish you the best with your journey0
