Could use friends.

Hello, I'm starting a weight loss journey once again and could really use some friends to help motivate me through it. This isn't the first time I've lost weight (went from 225 to 135 in my teens) but now I'm 25, married to a man who eats almost everything he wants without suffering, and working and some of that pesky weight seems to have crept back on. I've tried to lose weight two years ago but lacked the follow through to do so, but this time I want to stick to it and become a better, healthier me! I think being able to see other people doing the same will really help, especially with my husband deploying soon. I really worry that without him around I'll just get lonely and depressed, which I know is the opposite of how I need to be.


Whoo. That ended up longer than I meant it to, haha. Long story short, I'd really love some friends so feel free to add me.

    Thank you everyone who is sending me requests/allowing me to friend them. It's very clear to me already that this community is a wonderful one and I'm so happy to be apart of it. I'm really starting to feel like I'll be able to do this.

    Now if only the hubby would stop bringing home Dr. Pepper.

    Feel free to add me too. My husband is the same way. He can eat whatever he wants and doesn't gain a pound. He is also over a foot taller than me and weighs about 35-40 pounds less than I do.

    Have you tried Dr. Pepper TEN ? It's actually quite good and a great alternative for that treat.

    I'm in Hawaii right now and I've never seen Dr. pepper zero, but I've noticed the islands seem to be like five years behind when it comes to new products/fashion, but I'll certainly be on the lookout. Trying to cold turkey soda and so far it's tougher than I expected.

    I'll be on the lookout for this one as well. I think a little less 'cold turkey' and more 'ease into things' is a good plan for me.
