in Introduce Yourself
Hello all :)

I have been struggling to loose weight and stay on track. A few years ago I lost 35lbs on my fitness pal just by tracking my calories, I was able to stop tracking about 6 months after the weight loss and was able to maintain for a few years. One baby and lots of other life changes later I'm back up 30 lbs and need to loose the weight again. Past few months I've been loosely tracking calories and find myself not staying motivated. I find that I binge and then get so disappointed that it takes me days to get back on track. I need some friends to keep me accountable and on track :)

Anyone interested in being friends so that we can motivate each other to loose?

    I'm in! I'm 43yo female. I bike, kinda run & swim & attend cardio class. I am 8 weeks post tummy tuck so just getting back in the swing of work outs., yea! No more baby skin! I have twins that are 18. I'm not the cleanest eater. I do fine for a while then eat sweets like crazy. Through the holidays Ive made a commitment to run everyday, biking is cold, cardio kicks my butt. At the very least I want to do something everyday now til Jan 1st.

    I am in! I think this is a great idea. I am a 23yo female. I joined Planet Fitness and started at 20 minutes of cardio and 20 minutes of weight training adding 1 minute per day to the cardio. I am on day 4 of my exercise plan. I have been loosely following a low carb diet (cutting out all grains and sweets). I just want to get back to my pre-baby weight of 120.

    Hi ya'll I've been having the same trouble over the summer I lost 10 pounds through myfitnesspal and once college started I have gained 5 back. I just started T25 with my roommate but we have the worst trouble motivating each other to eat right. I'm looking for friends and advice so that we can motivate each other.
