I need friends on here for supports. It seems so hard to lose even 5-10 lbs when your body is comfortable. I get so much mixed up information from the internet that I cannot tell what is real and what is just trying to sell me something. I would love to get some friends on here and hear what works. I am really tired of being in double digit clothing. I would love to be in the single digits again. Looking forward to your replys :)

    Hey there! I'm often told that i'm a supportive and motivational friend. I'm still about 19 pounds from the 170's but I know I'll be getting there soon and I know I'll probably get stuck there as well and need support and motivation. Friends?

    I have weighed anywhere from 170-178 and can't seem to lose it. I just started no carbing 2 days ago which hopefully in a couple weeks I can add carbs

    I was stuck in the low 170's for most of 2011 & 2012 but take full responsibility for being stuck---I stopped pushing myself & got content with maintaining. I stopped working out & quit smoking in 2012 (Not a lovely combo at all!). I am new here too & I am not back in 170's yet but key word is "yet." I am determined to be back in the 170's very soon & I am not stopping there. Feel free to add me :)

    Feel free to add me too :). I started in the 138 to 140 when I met my husband 3 years ago - I'm afraid I am really close to the 170's now and trying hard to get it back down. I have to have a "plan" lol -- I'm always trying something new to keep me interested.

    I around 165 now which is close! I too would love to go down to a single digit clothing size. Let's be friends and get out of our comfortable rut!

    Feel free to add me, I know what it's like! I started out at 179 but it everytime I was about to go down in weight (170s to 160s, 160s to 150s, 150s to 140s and now currently 140s to 130s) I would get stuck!

    Feel free to add me. I am 5'8 and 177, and need to get to 165. It feels impossible to lose that last 10 lbs lol.
