I am Marta, 41 years old and I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes last April. I did loose 25 pounds and became a pre-diabetic. In October my mom passed away and all my old eating habits came back.

I am looking for some support, not pity. I need to lose 30 pounds more and I know I can do it. In this site I have all I need to help me but I need the support.

So, anyone that is willing please send me a request. I will not let you down because I do not want to let myself down. My mom is looking down on me and I know she will be happy to know that I will move ahead and make myself better again. thanks everyone!

Lets do this!!!

Hello my name is Lisa. I am 27 years old and I have maintained my weight at 170 lbs. I am 5"7. I want to go back to 150 lbs wearing a size 8 again. I had been eating fast food while at work. I have a desk job so I sit all day long. I want to be more active and eat whole foods also to add more fruits and vegetables to my diet this year. I also eliminated fast food so I can continue cooking from home with healthy recipies alternatives.

I've done some research and found I can cook from home with portion control meals in a crockpot. This encourages more vegetables in the meal. I also want to make my own fruit smoothies adding vegetables and yogurt with the fruit so I can have it for breakfast and dessert after dinner. I would also want to eat a large bowl of salad for lunch with chicken or turkey or ham.

I have a 5 year old daughter I pick up from after care after work around 6pm. Instead of going home I want to be able to work out, but taking her to the gym is difficult. I am interested in taking her to the park before it gets too dark. I can play with her with jump rope, jumping jacks, and running in place. For jogging I have got her a bicycle for Christmas. Hopefully she can ride her bike while I jog around the apartment complex for a little bit. Or she can play at the playground while I jog around it with the dog just to keep an eye on her. The playground on ft hood base has a track I like to use some day.

These are my goals I would like to slowly pursue no later than a week or so. I am very confident this will work I just need to put in the efforts. I would love to be your support buddy.
