Hello!

I just started Myfitnesspal at the recommendation of a friend of mine who's husband lost 37 pounds, and she is beginning to lose weight herself. I have "battled the bulge" for 22 years (yes, since I was 9 yrs old.) and know that diet and exercise work-we just need to put in the effort! I have utilized support from workout buddies before, but not having so many close friends here in Denver, the accountability piece has been difficult! I would love to report to a group in my same weight loss goal range so we can help each other win the battle!

Good luck-we can do this together!

    Twins...woah! I haven't ventured into "baby-making" yet, so I'm sure its more difficult to shed weight you gained during pregnancy...One thing I am trying to do (as today, I was hungry this am) is remember oranges and water to help stave off hunger. I added a small snack and after my orange (pectin supposedly helps with hunger pangs), I felt I had more energy and was not as hungry... good luck, and let me know if I can be of any support!
  • I am here for you sister! I would love to lose 15 lbs and need support too! xoxox

    You are doing great and very consistent! 8 pounds already-yeah! I overindulged this weekend at the wedding, but since we were at altitude, hiked and danced my little fanny off at the wedding! Back on the horse today, although100 pounds over. Just got some groceries, though and now have more options for the first part of the day...Looking forward to seeing you for the tomatoe swap. Keep rockin, girl!:happy:
