    Hey Ashleigh, at one point or another everyone on this site has struggled.

    This year I'm not thinking about the total weight I want to lose, instead I've broken it down into 10 Lb mini goals.

    Good luck with your journey!

    Hi Ashleigh! Welcome to MFP! :flowerforyou: There's a lot of great people here to offer support. I struggle most days to stay on track. If you don't already have one, invest in a digital food scale. Measuring properly has made all the difference in the world for me.:flowerforyou:

    Hi Ashleigh!

    We just started on here too! Do you have a friend who is trying too? My significant other and I share our exercise and food diaries, and it has honestly made it easier to track meals and to hold each other accountable. We are also having a biggest loser contest each week with the proceeds going into a kitty for something fun.

    Just hang in there and do what you can every day!

    Welcome, Ashleigh

    This is the place to be when you are struggling!

    I would ultimately like to lose 73 pounds. I have lost about 33 so far. Feel free to add me as a friend!

    Hi Ashleigh! I am just starting too, but have gained 1.5 pounds in the last week (sigh). I know that struggling is normal, but mind and heart are not always in sync. I would be happy to have a weight loss buddy, you can add me as a friend if you want. Good luck and keep up your hard work, you can do it :smile:

    Hi

    Im returning to my fitness pal, the first time round I didn't really do the forum so im hoping this time round to make some friends and keep myself motivated while I change my diet (im following the slimming world plan) and increase my daily exercise. feel free to add me. im trying really hard to measure/ weight out my food and make healthier choices it would be nice to get a support network to help me lose and keep the weight off this time.
