in Introduce Yourself
Hey everyone I am 28 years old. I weigh 292 lbs and I want to lose 100lbs by my 30th birthday. I have about a year and 3 months to do it. I am 110% dedicated. I was told I am prediabetic, I am on high bp meds, I have pcos and well I need to not have so many health issues at 28. I have been a member for a while but I have to make this work because I have so much to look forward to. Sooooo.. Join me on this journey, lets make it fun, lets vent when we need to, and lets all make new friends.

Cheers and happy losing,
Lesley

    You really can do this and meet your goals. At the beginning of the year I was Diabetes Type 2, had high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Since I really got my butt in gear and my head straight, I have been hitting the gym 5 days a week and consistently log in the food. End of March I had good ol' blood work done and all (blood sugars, cholesterol, blood pressure, etc) all came back in the normal range. I still have a ways to go for my own goal, but it's finally working. I will add you as I am on here daily and like to support folks. Anyone that would like to add me, please feel free to do so! Love to get the support too, it helps hold me accountable.

    Hi! I am 23 and am currently 178 (which for my hieght of 5'3" is borderline "obese" on the BMI) I also want friends on here, if only to keep me accountable to someone and get tips and inspiration. I want to lose 20lbs by my wedding next June!

    Sending you a friend request. I still have another 128 lbs to lose but have lost a total of 84 so far. I will be here and I will motivate anyone who wants to friend me because I am in this for the long run.

    Im so with you, I actually just wiped out all my old "friends" on here except one, bc they are not very responsive, even when I respond to their things all the time. My story is that I just had a csection 11 days ago and got all the way up to 205. In these 11 days im down to 186ish... (need new scale because the last number doesnt come in well). My goal weight is 140. I really need supportive friends on my journey as well. I cannot start working out for about 4 1/2 more weeks, but i want to be well prepared. :-) Good luck to all of us! :-) I'll send you a friend add now.
