I am new to this site but have heard good things about it and decided to
give it a try. I started this weight loss journey last November and had lost 25
pounds by the first of May. I went on a couple of vacations, got off track and
have gained back 8 pounds. I'm hoping to find some motivation here to
help me lose those 8 pounds and 30 more!

  • Keep at it!! Don't just go for the 38....go for six pack abs....reach for the stars and you might at least end up with the moon and the sky right?

    Welcome to MFP :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
    This is a great site. Take the time to learn about all the great features and use them.
    You will succeed if you work hard and don’t lose sight of your goal.

    Take it one day at a time
    Stay open minded to new ideas
    Take baby steps
    Drink lots of water :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    Think of this as a new way of life, not just a temporary diet.

    It always helps me to log my food first before I eat so there are no surprises. :laugh:

    Find a group to be part of and check in with them every day.
