So excited to get this started!

Hello all! I am 28 and I live in Arkansas. Last year I lost about 40 pounds but sadly enough I have gained it all back. I am ready to start this journey again with better results. I have I total about 200 pounds to lose. I know if I keep at it I can accomplish this huge goal.

  • You have a great attitude! If you want some support towards your goal feel free to add me :)
  • You can do it! I take it one day at a time....and sometimes that seems overwhelming so it's one meals at a time for me on some days. I've been where you are and have been plucking away for a loss of 110# over the last two years. Have patience, do something good for your body everyday and feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like. The support on this site is great!

    Welcome! We all have the same goal here, to lose weight, be healthy, and support each other. Keeping weight off is a life long journey! Take each day as they come.

    Every Second is a Chance to Turn Your Life Around. Welcome to the beginning of your next life. Wonderful things can happen, but it is all up to the choices you make each and every day. Sometimes you will stumble and want to quit but all you have to do is keep going. The time is going to pass either way, so why not try and make the most of it? Every little, small step is a step to a better life. Just don't stop taking those little steps. :smile:

    Thats my goal dear. You can do it think of it as a daily thing. This is going to be a lifelong battle but totally worth it.
