Hey everyone...

So I lost 10 lbs, and have now gained back 8 lbs of it. My ultimate goal is to lose 20 lbs.

I will be honest...I got to busy to take care of my body. It is a huge excuse and I am embarrassed it happened. However, I am now looking for support. I am ready to LOSE this weight. I have already joined a boxing class as well as a spin and pilates mix class. I CAN DO THIS. If you are in the same boat as I am. Add me! Let's support each other :)

P.S. I'm 5'4 and currently around the lower 140s.

Good luck pals :)

    I'm in a familiar boat. I started on here about a year ago at 275, lost 10 lbs and had to stop losing weight due to pregnancy. I started back on here right after Thanksgiving and I'm still 9 lbs shy of that old start weight. I started this round at 295. Good luck to us both.

    I know how you feel. I got lazy over the summer and gained about 5 lbs back after I had lost 20...got back on track and am now am 6 lbs lighter than I was back in May (total of 26lbs lost since jan '11)...slow progress, but we can do this is we keep it up!! Good luck :)

    We're all here to share our struggles AND successes :) Glad to see you back!
