in Getting Started
I am trying to drop 20lbs and looking for some friends to keep me accountable, on track and supportive. I have yo-yo'd for almost two years in the 160s and would love to drop some of this fat. Please add me!

    I have the same problem, I am quite curvy and 5'7" and dont mind being a bit heavier as a result but a few months ago i was the thinest I'v been since middle school (@150) my waist was waif like and everyone noticed I had maintained that waight for 2 years But i dont know how as I didnt change anything (as far as eating, or excersising) and then all of a sudden what felt like all at once i gained 16pounds and since then have gained another 10 I am now the heaviest I have ever been in my life. I diet and it dosnt work..... Excersie i feel may have worked in the past but ihave never really comited to a set type of workout routine and dont know how much or how often to work out I'm lost

    I want this to be the last time I "re-commit" so that I can stop feeling like I'm starting all over! It's not a resolution, it's a lifestyle change.

    I lost 40 lbs, but then gained 15 back after a car accident. Hoping to lose that 15 lbs again and THEN get back to my original weight loss and lifestyle change goals. I would love to be able to help encourage others and keep focused!

    Mind me asking what type of detox are you talking about? Do you know your body detoxifies it self?
