    @goal06082021 do you knit or crochet? I love both of those handcrafts because I find the repetitive motion sooo meditative and calming. I usually try to crochet or knit while watching tv because then it stops me from sinking into the bored listless TV stupor where I let Netflix continue on to the next episode, and the next episode... but cross-stitch is lots of fun too!!

    Cesse47 loved your goals. Can relate to decluttering . Sometimes think I need to keep everything as I need to hold on to the memories.

    Thanks for the post!

    Hello everyone, my name is Sarah and I am 32 years old. I weight 241.2 pounds and would like to set my goal to 200 pounds to start. I have always had difficulty loosing the weight and keeping it off. Before now my heaviest was about 220. Three years ago I had my son. While pregnant I gained about 40 pounds and after giving birth it came right off. However in the last couple of years since having my son, I have gained more weight. My body is in rough shape. My joints are sore, I sometimes become winded and playing with my son can become difficult at times. I want to loss weight to feel better about myself, to be happy and to do things with my family without feel tired or in pain. I have lost weight before and have fallen off the wage and had troubles starting over. I always felt discouraged. Especially when I was doing it on my own. I am happy to say that I am not alone anymore. I have my mum as my support system as I venture on this new journey. She has been on her own journey for the last four month and now we can do this together. I feel now, that I have the suppose I need to finally accomplish my goal.

    Age: 32
    Height: 5'6
    (SW) 241.2
    GW: 5 pounds
    Weight in: end of the month
