    I, too, am starting my journey (again!!)! Yes, people say how crazy it is to start so close to the holidays, but I feel there is no better time to start! This will definitely test our will power to not over indulge and our capability to stay on track, but I believe we can do it! I'm up for the challenge. ;)

    Feel free to add as a friend!

    I'm right here with you! This is my day 1 back on after being away for months. I got way off track and decided I would be do better starting back on before the holidays so I won't over indulge, and start at an even higher weight! We can do it!

    Years ago I started eating healthier portion sizes, walking 4 miles a day, and writing down everything I ate. At the time I worked 60 hours a week between a full time job and a part time job at the Original Cookie Company and I lost 60lbs. in 3 months because I was heavy to start with. I maintained until I got pregnant 10 months later. I know you can do it. I am restarting again and have lost 16 lbs. recently and have joined Planet Fitness.

    I'm rebooting from the middle, thankfully. Starting when you are is the best thing. I see a lot of people that start the "New Years Resolution" thing in January at my gym and by February, they're all gone.

    I'd love for us to be friends. Anyone here can add me if they'd like.

    Hello. I just started (again) several days ago. I want to lose between 100 - 120 pounds. Maybe we could support each other.

    I'm just starting too and have 100# to lose. It doesn't matter when you start but that you started!

    I am new to this app as well. I have lost 50 pounds in the last year but started stalling. I am only on day 8 of tracking my food and exercise, but I already feel it has been helpful. This thing we are doing is hard, I can use all the help I can get!
