New to this group. Need some supporters.

Hello everyone,

My name is Sarah. I've been off and on My Fitness Pal for over a year now. I've struggled with my weight for many years. I'm 291lbs and want to loose 160lbs. I need all the support I can get. If you want to join in the journey with me and possibly be pen-pals for each other.. feel free to friend request me or message me. **BUT you have to be serious! Sometimes I tend to lack in motivation and I get lazy and I dont need other people to bring me down.. I am so serious about changing my life and I need ppl who are in my life also.

Hope to hear from anyone,
Sarah N.

    Welcome Sarah!

    I am not on the ball right now as of late but I do post the challenges on here and I make a great cheerleader! I am excited to get to know you!

    I have lost close to 30 pounds and I am hoping to rebound from being sick and keep truckin' along. I have about the same amount to lose as you so I understand what it's like to have a big goal. Looking forward to seeing you on the board! Join in a challenge if you like -- the new one starts tomorrow.

    WELCOME!!! I totally know how you feel----I was doing great a few years ago---lost more than 75 pounds, then I quit smoking and gained back all that plus 25 more----as a bonus I guess!!!

    It feels so good to get back on track, have a plan, have support. I am sure you will do great!
  • Hey Sarah, I tried to go to your profile but it says you deactivated your account.
    I'm hoping that message was a mistake and you're still around. Hellloooooo???!?!?! :)
