Hi Everyone. I am looking for some motivation. I have two young girls who need their momma to be around for a very long time. I am weighing at 286 lbs which is totally unhealthy. I need all the motivation I can get.

    Add me too. I have found that the more people that hold me accountable, them more likely I am to stick to it.

    Hi Lively,

    I'd suggest filling in a bit of your profile - doesn't need to be too personal, but some specific goals can help your motivation (i.e. lose 5 pounds this month or whatever suits you).

    Best of luck on this journey and remember persistence is key! You will probably fall off the wagon again and again, but get right back on, log it *all* and keep going! Slow, steady and small steps wins this race!

    Hi,
    I am also a 31yr old mom of three. I don't have as much to lose as you but I want to lose 65lbs. So we can help each other. I have a full time, job and also attend college online so my schedule is very busy. But if we all work together and help motivate each other all is possible. My outlook is always one step at a time. We didn't gain it overnight so we won't lose it overnight. I would love to be an ear for you or help in the motivation department.
