edited December 2024 in Motivation and Support
Hi,
I am 34 years old, 5 feet tall I and I weigh 161 lbs. I have been on the roller coaster with weight loss for some time and I am fed up. I can do really well for about 3 months or 10 lbs then I just lose focus. I have realized I need a support system. My husband is great but he is already super fit and I don't think he always gets it. Just looking for some friends to add, I think that seeing everyone's posts and progress will be motivating and it would be nice to have someone to encourage me on the rough days. I am willing to do the same for you. Thanks in advance.

    Good Morning. :smile: I'm Floretta, and i've been on the weight loss journey a long time. It is much like a roller coaster. Up and down.
    Feel free to add me as a friend. Having a support group really makes this journey a lot easier, and having someone to motivate, instead of criticize you, allows you to be truthful and accountable on a day to day basis.
    I look forward to communicating with you.
    God Bless.
