I've been on here for quite some time but haven't really put it to good use. I have some friends on here that motivate me but I'd like to have more friends on here. I have a huge amount of weight to lose and would like to have some friends on here that need to lose lots too. thanks, Samantha

    If anyone can do it you can! Don't be discouraged, last year it took me the WHOLE year to just lose 40 lbs. At my weight, I should've lost so much more, but a loss is a loss. It took about 6 months to wake up my metabolism. 6 months of not losing anything was very discouraging. Our bodies are different too!! I really do notice a difference in my body at 30 then at 24. I'm just going with the flow and paying attention to my body and pushing it to what I think it's capable of.

    You are WORTHY of the change you want to see. Be selfish with your time and invest in yourself because in the end you're investing in your future and in having more time with your son and husband :) ...so it's not really "selfish", but for the time being you will be sacrificing time away from family to exercise....and if you can find ways to get your family involved in your workouts, then even better!! :) ....but yah, I know you can do it!!! :) ...and you motiviate me when I see your updates about going to the gym n whatnot. :D
