    I’d like to join. I have found in the past a little accountability helps me stay on track. I lost 36 lbs three years ago and I’ve gained back 20 plus of which 10 during covid lockdown secondary to stress ( RN working in covid ICU ) . I’ve come out of the fog so to speak and have committed to my weight loss journey again. Stepped on the scale Monday for the first time in a long time, ouch !!
    Starting weight 164.6 / 5’4” hope to get down to 135-140. Started recording all meals but have found not having a nightly cocktail the pits !! Will occasionally save calories for this. Calorie goal 1200-1300 per day and working out at least four times per week. ( had not been working out since March) I’m using Beachbody on demand which I’ve done in the past . My diary is open just need to add as friend. Anyways good luck to us all.

    I'm in the same boat, but shorter. I'd like to lose 65 pounds, but not by Christmas. I'd love to follow along with all of you. My goal is to lose 1 pound. One. (again and again!!) But I only focus on the one. This week, I want to get to 170.

    I love that idea of just focusing on small goals and repeat them every week. It makes it more achievable and doesn’t make you feel like your goal weight is really far away

    In the same boat OP :/ . I had my first kiddo last year, and just finished exclusively breastfeeding once he turned 1 so I'm ready to drop the pounds. I'm not ready to go back to the gym with Covid so I ordered a Peloton bike. It's supposed to arrive next month, so in the meantime I am just trying to get moving and really try and focus on diet.

    I will weigh myself tomorrow to get a starting point. Not looking forward to seeing that number lol.
