Hi there, I feel like this is a bit of deja vu! I was here over 10 years ago and lost 120 lbs. I found the community to be so incredibly supportive.
Unfortunately, due to lack of self control and motivation I've gained the weight back and am looking to ramp up again to rekindle my former healthy lifestyle. Which, to be honest, I cannot wait for!
I have about 120 lbs to lose, and to be honest, that doesn't frighten me. I know I'll be able to. I am willing to do whatever it takes, except surgery and pills!
However, I need some friends who are in the same boat. I would like friends who are serious about weight loss and achieving a healthy lifestyle. I don't care if you need to lose 200 lbs or 20 lbs, let's help eachother achieve our goals!
I share my diary and would like others who do the same - I don't open my diary for advice or guidance (I've been around the block) but to maybe share ideas for meals with friends.
I'm looking for friends who focus on clean eating, #gymlife and a real commitment to themselves and their health.
Thanks!!

Welcome back!
What are you going to do differently this time to keep sticking to it?
As far as a mutually supportive group, I'm part of one. Our motto actually is "STICK TO IT." It's called "Lose 1 Pound a Week and Keep it Off." Anyone here is free to join. There's two requirements: post goals once a year (they can be revised each quarter) and do a weekly weigh-in. We have other ongoing challenges that are optional, and we try to do special challenges too. It's a private group, so you have to request to join, but everyone gets approved. Then you've got a few weeks to enter your goals.
Come join us if you like.1
