Reaching out for support

Hello all, I am looking to get some motivating friends on here to help me along and I will also try to help you along as well with motivation and encouragement.

I just signed up for a weight loss competition at my work. I signed up 2 years ago and pledged to lose 50 pounds and lost 54 pounds. Since then I have gained 17 of those pounds back and looking to get back on track. The only upside to gaining those 17 pounds back was that I quit smoking. It has been 13 months now since I quit smoking. Now it's time to get the weight off.

I just signed up again for the weight loss challenge and pledge to lose 40 pounds by July 25th. I hope to add some people who will inspire and encourage me to keep the course and reach my goals and I will try to give back the same.
