Hey! I finally worked out how to get around this app and found the group!
Long story short, I have tracked food and followed a regular exercise routine (based around heavy lifting) in the past but I met my husband 7 years ago and that all sort of stopped. I don't think I've exercised regularly for around 5 years and my eating habits aren't the best.
Name: Charlotte
Age: 34
Height: 5'3"
Current weight: 125
Goal weight: 115
Currently nearing the end of a house renovation and living with my parents so hard to commit to regular exercise, time wise. As soon as I'm back in my house I will get back to the gym because I really enjoy lifting and it's so great for body recomposition.
Just started tracking food again and can see I need to improve my macros.2 -

Hello lovely ladies!
I apologize in advance for the long rambling post...
For those who were in this group the first time around I've missed you! For those who joined in this summer, I can't wait to read through your comments and get to know you. For the past 1 1/2 months I've been struggling with some Heath issues and haven't been mentally, emotionally, or physically motivated to do what I know needs to be done to reach my weight loss goals. I'm sorry I've dropped off and have been so inactive. if you'll have me, I'd like to jump back in with this coming weigh in (#6). This group is still the most supportive group of women I've ever been a part of and I know I'll reach my goals eventually with the accountability and motivation I receive from all of you!
The bad news is I was having regular gallbladder attacks from a crummy gallbladder and gallstones. I had my gallbladder removed this past Monday and Have been in recovery all week.
The good news is my doctor cleared me for light excercise and not having gallbladder will force me to eat super healthy so I don't get sick!
The other news (not sure if it's good or bad) is that I had lost 35lbs at the end of the first challenge and have maintained that with out gaining my weight back while I was MIA this past month. I didn't lose anymore, but I'm not starting from scratch again and that is good news to me!
Thank you for reading if you made it through all that, I hope it's ok that I'm jumping back in0 -
Oops, the important part cut off...

Age: 25
Height: 5 ft 5 in
Current Weight: 196.8 lbs
Challenge Goal Weight: 180 lbs
Ultimate Goal Weight: 149 lbs
Goals: To be active in this group again, also to wear my Fitbit and track with MFP everyday, to get to the gym 4-5 times per week, to eat a healthy (gallbladder-less friendly) diet and stay within my calories everyday.
Motivation: All of you! Again, this has been the most supportive group of women I've ever been a part of and I know with the accountability and motivation from you I will reach my weight loss goals! I also want to go into the holidays, seeing extended family, feeling confident and healthy. I've always been bigger and I want people to see I have the willpower and perseverance to get to a healthy weight.2 -
