New, need friends and inspiration!

My name is Jess, and my goal is to lose 16-20 pounds in the next four to five months,

I am slightly overweight for my age, but it isn't tremendous. However, since I am so short (4"10) I think the weight looks a bit heavier on me.

Just looking to meet some guys or gals for a support network through here. I have a lot of nutrition questions, but nutritionists are too expensive, so hopefully I'll be able to gain some insight here!

Anyway, I'm glad to be here, and I hope to talk to some of you soon!

    Welcome and best of luck to you!! You are the same height as my little sister and she always says 5lbs on her looks likke what 20lbs would look like on me. I can imagine that would be frustrating.

    Feel free to add me! :)

    Add me! I am sorta new too (about two weeks) I tried to get my mom and sister to do it but they havent yet.... I have food temptations all around me... I need some support!!! I have lost 3 lbs since my last weigh in though... :)
  • Hi! Add me as well! I am looking for friends to mutually motivate! It's easy to begin but harder to remain consistent without support. Let's do this!

    I got my inspiration from a Weight Management Program that I attend at my GP Surgery. Over three years I have lost nearly four . I have lost my weight by counting calories, weighing my food, loking at portion size & drinking with & without my meals. I keep active by walking my three dogs & doing some gardening.

    I hope this helps.:smile::smile:
