Need support, friends looking to lose 40-50 pounds also!

I am 30 years old and a stay at home Mom until September! YAY for that.lol It has been a while. I recently quit smoking also and am 2 months in but have gained 13 or so pounds since. I am as of today 183. I am always trying and failing. Making excuses. I have started jogging and the fact that I can now breath is AMAZING! So I am hoping to be a success this time around. I updated my profile with some more info. So anyone with similarities feel free to add me and lets do this together!

    Congrats on quitting. I have been using a nicotine vaporizer for about 18 months now after smoking for 20 years and I never thought giving up would come this easily to me. Even the smell of cigarettes on someone who has recently smoked it gross to me. I'm also in the 40 pound bracket :)

    Good luck!!

    I am fairly new, only about 2 weeks in and similar goals to yours. I have a little more to lose, 62lbs. Feel free to add me - I always appreciate new friends for motivation and encouragement.

    I started at 180 and have already lost 10 pounds since january! I am looking to be down to 140 by the end of the year. I don't remember the last time I was that weight. So far I have just been working out and eating about the same but I am considering calorie counting to lose some more. Feel free to add me as a friend. This is my first post also.
