Hey guys. I've been a member of this site off/on for awhile now, but this month I've finally been serious about my weight loss for the first time in a looong time. A little bit about me:

I live in Ohio, I'm a single parent to a cute 6yr old daughter. I went through a divorce last year and now this is my year to focus on ME! :smile: :smile:

I have been overweight my entire adult life, but I tipped the scale at 332 pounds. I gained about 80 of that the last year or so before I separated from my ex-husband...lonely/depressed= eating my feelings. I never, ever thought that my weight would get so completely out of control, but now here we are!

I have lost 9 pounds so far this month, I'm back at the gym, eating better and I am feeling better already!

I would love to have some more pals to join me on this journey! Please feel free to add me or vice versa so we can cheer each other on!

Welcome!

    You can add me as a pal. I'm over 300lbs. I became serious about my weight loss in December and have lost 14lbs. We need encouragement to remove the mental and physical weights that keep us overweight. We can do it. I can't wait to right the post after breaking into the 200's. You have my support. mspears1198

    I signed up a while ago just because I found the app on my phone but then I totally slacked so I am going to give this another try. I have started a gym membership and am trying to go fairly regularly so I am going to try to stick with it this time. Anyone is welcome to add me as a friend and I will try to add some of you....if I can figure out how :)

  • Hi you can add me as well. I've been off and on again as well but this year I am totally focus. Sometimes I do each more than my recommended calories but not too much. I enjoy the iPhone app since it really helps me keep on track. Today, I went over by 600 calories but what i made was low fat and cook with Pam spray but the milanesa meat was still high with calories. oh well. Tomorrow hitting the gym with full force. Good luck on your voyage.
