Need friends and motivation!

Hello everyone! I'm an 18 year old girl who's tried for years to lose weight and always failed. I've always been pretty shut off, so I'm hoping that coming here every day and making friends will give me the motivation I need :) I weigh in now at 201.6 pounds, and I'd love to get down to 130 one day.

    You can add me to. I am quite a bit older than you but, I have also been struggling with weight loss since I was about 12 or 13. I got it off for a while but here lately It is back on with a vengence. I have found that the more friends you have on this site the better because everyone is so encouraging.

  • Hi! I'm a 23 year old girl that doesn't have any friends with the same weight loss goal as me. I always lose motivation and I'm hoping that coming here will help. My SW was 217lbs and My CW is 200lbs my GW is 168. I would like it to be more but Ive decided to set myself an initial goal that I feel is realistic then setting myself another goal later.
  • You or anyone else can add me.

    Good luck... This a great place to connect when your feeling alone. Especially being around people with the same struggles.

    Anyone can feel free to add

    Hey your my weight loss twin! (only I'm a few years older!) I've been on and off again trying to get back down to 130 lb. I'm at 200 lb currently, with my highest being 220 lb. I love new friends and now that I'm back in the game (again) I'll post and motivate you as long as you do the same for me! :)

    Best of luck! :)
  • Hey, I'd love to be your friend if you want? :)
  • I'm new to this and hope to lose 5 kg in a month! Is it realistic? :smile:
