New and Looking for Support

I'm new to this site, recommended by my endocrinologist. I'm 35 years old, divorced mom of 2 boys, and have 125 pounds to lose. I'm hoping to find people who can help motivate me to stay on track and for support - especially during those times when food is just too irresistible. I'm also hoping to find others near me to walk with and help motivate me to get moving (I'm in a relationship with a wonderful man and am old-fashioned, so I'm looking for female friends).

    Hi faithfulheart!

    I've been a member of this app for a while now but only really started using it last week. So far I've lost just over a kilo (~2lbs). I'm enrolled in Tanya's (mdcjmom) December challenge and really looking forwards to getting started tomorrow!

    I too am always looking for friends, support and motivation!

    Congrats on making it here! Lots of awesome people to help you along!! I'm a divorced, single mom, 22 pounds into a battle to lose 90. I have made the most amazing friends on here. Good luck and most of all HAVE FUN! We didn't gain it over night, you can't lose it over night either. One day at a time. I'm female but not so old fashioned, I'm excitable, odd and random and some people don't like that. I talk to my pals daily so if you need extra support feel free to add.
