Hi,
My name is Johanna, I am a freshman at University. I have decided to make an effort to lose 30-35 lbs that I've been putting on since the beginning of high school when my parents divorced.
I'm trying to stick to a 1200 calorie diet, and work out at least 3 times a week. I'm looking for a "pen-pal" type of situation. Another (woman, prefferably) to message with so we can talk about our progress/setbacks, goals, etc.
Feel free to message me :)
Looking forward to this journey,
sincerely,
johanna

  • Hey Johanna!!

    I'd love to message back n forth! Encouragement is ALWAYS needed! I'll add you! :D Although my goal is a little higher.. I wanna lose 50... then some more maybe :)

    My name is Abby btw! HI!!!
  • Hey,

    If you want you can add me also to message and encourage each other. Right now I'm doing 1200 calorie also and Im trying to lose a total of about 18 more lbs. Its a little difficult at the moment for me because I had a baby via c-section and had some complications so I'm limited to the type of workouts I can do. But I'm determined to get into shape and lose weight I gained from using and quitting drugs and from having kids lol. The more ppl you have the more encouragement there is

    My name is Stacey:)
