Hi, I am Jean. I started my journey on 1/1/17 and want to lose 35 pounds. Weight loss is a journey. Someone gave me great advise when I started. Eat MORE not LESS. It works!!! Eat more fruits, veggies, and healthy foods. Naturally you will eat less of the other. I wish you great success on your journey. Feel free to add me to your friends.

Hello, hope all is well. Best thing I found to help me stay on track is join a gym with classes. Going to smaller classes has given me a family away from home with a ton accountability.0

Hi there! I am looking to lose the last of my baby weight as my daughter is 9 mos (my goal is to have it all off by the time that she is a year old- I gained 45 lbs total through pregnancy... ). I hear you on the friend thing; it is hard to go at it alone.
I have had a lot of trial and error over the last 8 months and I learned that what works for me is counting calories, but not restricting which foods I can have. When I was trying to restrict which foods I could and couldn't eat, I couldn't stick to a diet for more than a week. When I finally loosened the reins and let myself eat some "bad things" occasionally, but then still ate healthy 90% of the time and never went over on calories, I started dropping weight immediately/quickly and have stuck with it for 3 mos now. I also learned to do some kind of activity daily for at least 20 min; even if it is only a quick walk, or speed vacuuming the house for 20 min (I usually do this while carrying my daughter... pretty good workout!), anything is better than nothing.
Good luck!! You can do this!2 -
