in Introduce Yourself
I'm looking for some friends for extra support. Everyone in my family is "trying" to lose weight, but not really sticking with it. We all have goals set for the spring/summer but my brother is the only one actually trying with me, but he's in college so its a little hard to stick with it with no support. I'm looking to lose about 35lbs. Message me!

    Sounds like the family needs a team game plan. Glad you're making a plan vs just saying you're trying.

    Hope we can help here.

    Maybe once they see you making changes they will want to join in!

    I've lost 20lbs since mid-October. I've been using this site since mid-November. That includes eating whatever I damn well pleased for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Eve dinners. Feel free to look at my diary. I've been doing a lot of research about the healthiest way to lose weight so I just increased my calories to meet my BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate). This will help me retain most of my muscle as I lose weight. I'll lose at a slower rate, but I'll be losing mostly fat instead of fat and muscle so I'll look super sexy by the end of the Summer! I want to look good when I reach my goal weight! If I still feel bad about my body, this will all have been for nothing.
