Hi everyone :-)

I really could use some help staying motivated and accountable ( but in a friendly supportive way, not in a "do better or else" kinda way LOL). I was doing really well until late November hit. I run my own small jewellery business and of course with the holidays life just got super busy. I struggled making time for the gym (anyone who runs their own business know there is no such thing as business hours), and was fitting meals in where I could. Surprisingly I stayed ok over Christmas, but then we had family in town for the last 2 weeks of Jan. They are major "foodies" and before I knew it about 7 pounds had stuck right back on :-(
Anyways, I promised myself I would make it into the low 150s by my 30th birthday, and that is June 10th. So I could really use some supportive friendly help. I would love any new friends, and look forward to participating here, and it hopefully giving me something to help motivate me and work towards.
