Just lost 70lbs in 6 months. Hoping I can motivate others

I'm new to this site. I like the variety of topics and it looks like people are willing to help each other. How do I meet local members in the schaumburg area to motivate EACH other. I most certainly don't want to ever go back to the old me.

  • What diet did you do to lose the 70 lbs? That is great!!
  • It was soooooo difficult. I was lucky enough to find a trainer at a local fitness 19. We put together a program and I took time to visit my local GNC in rolling meadows and they were great. Their suggestions were right on and all their recommendations with my workout program allowed me to get fit. Too much to type.

  • Hello everyone! I'm new to the site hoping and praying that I get some motivation. Losing weight has been a big problem for me in the past. I need all the motivation I can get.

    Wow, this thread took a wicked turn, and quite quickly.
    The person posted a thread offering motivation, and before some of you find out this persons motives, some of you immediately go on the defensive.

    Give him a chance, and if he starts corporate name dropping, then get pissed.
    How about a little optimism?
