Hi! Not exactly sure what to put here, but I’m guessing I’m here for the same as sone of us… to be healthier and lose a little weight.
I’ve struggled with my weight my whole life and I’m finally in a place where I want to see consistent progress.

My hope is that I can find a community of people who are like minded through positivity, kindness and encouragement. I tend to give this to those around me and don’t really stop to give myself the same.

I am excited and hopeful for this journey and I look forward to meeting new people that, together, we can make progress while cheering each other on☺️

    You’ve got this! Likewise for me. This app worked for me a long time ago and now I just have to lose weight and get healthier so I’m back on. Getting older sucks but I have to try and make it last! Give ourselves a chance!

    I have struggled with weight since I was 7. I think deciding the most important reason you want to lose weight has helped me to think about it when I'm not feeling strong. My reason is to live a long healthy life to enjoy with friends and family. Prep and recording help me. I shop Aldi's then Publix one day and buy low carb veggies and lean meats. The next day I make roasted vegetables. This week I made 4 cookie sheets of onions peppers mushrooms green beans brocolli brussell sprouts zuchini and carrots. They last us for days. I also cook meats ahead, usually tenderloins pork chicken turkey and sometimes beef. We also eat fish shellfish eggs and tuna for lean meat. It helps to not have to think about what we're eating each day. If it's quick and ready, I won't grab something unhealthy. I also make mashed cauliflower with garlic and salad when we get tired of roasted veggies. I like Aldi's Grain-tastic thin sliced bread and eat 70% chocolate 2 squares each evening. I hope these tips help someone.
