2nd Try, Need Friends.

So here I am, This is the second time I am trying this, I did really great the first time and droped almost 30 pounds, then torn my knee up pretty bad, laid around and couldn't excersie. I know that I could have still ate better but I guess I kind of gave up.

Since I am back I think it would be good to have some friends to bounce questions off of and motivate me a little bit lol I log everything, everyday and am very active.


So ADD ME if your interested and lets go down this road together!!!

p.s. also buying a fitbit or something along those lines soon, any suggestions would be great :)

    Feel free to add me. I'm looking for more motivation. I've decided to start this month out strong and get back into good eating habits. I'm also a fitbit user since 2012. I love it but I wish you could use a HRM with it as well.
  • Hi! I'm on my second go round my self. I didn't really try very hard the first time. I feel like I'm doing better this time, but could use some friends, even just to like their status & know I'm not alone. I have a fit it as well & love it. My coworkers even tease me about sleeping with it!

    Hey! Welcome back! I'm a redoer too... I have been really good about logging in this time and find that it helps me stay on track, not to mention the motivation is great! I try to eat clean but fail miserably sometimes. And I hate exercise, so I do things like play at the playground with my son and ride bike, cleaning the garage and mowing count too! I have about 60 pounds to lose from my original 100. I'm participating in a dietbet for the first time right now, a little more motivation for me. Anyone who wants to add me I'll accept, I love new friends! Best wishes!
  • Add me to your journey, this too is my second time. I am struggling with thyroid issues and having a tough time shedding the pounds but having encouragement can go along way, WELCOME BACK!

    I have the fitbit flex, the two issues that I have with it, is I tend to forget to charge it. The other issue that I have is that it works off arm motion so if I am using something at the gym (such as the cross fit) it doesn't accurately count it. Feel free to friend me if you wish

    Feel free to add me if you like. My first goal is to lose 60 lbs. So far fluctuating between 10-13 lbs down. This last month only 3 lbs down so really trying harder to meet my goals this month. I have an upcoming surgery at the end of August which will require 6-8 weeks recovery time, so don't expect much weight loss for the month of September, and will need all the motivation I can get to get back on track!
