    Feel free to add me. I have about 50 pounds to loose at this point. I don't think realistically I'll get there by the summer and as long as you eat and take care of yourself, you can add me! :) I'm on here all of the time.

    I am right there with you guys. I need to lose around 49 lbs by summer. I am using injectable prescription hcg from a weightloss clinic. Feel free to add me I am all about support systems! I've always dieted but never gotten results like I am achieving right now.

    Hi Liz, I too am looking for encouragement and am happy to be an encouragement to you too. I just joined yesterday. I've been battling weight my whole life. I am not wanting wanting to lose a certain amount by a certain time, but I want to be going in the direction of losing and I don't want to go back to the direction of gaining. I am hoping for a life change. I'll be praying for you that you can lose a significant amount of weight before summer. Every good choice means you're a step closer. :)

    That's great. :) I appreciate your encouraging post here. I hope losing continues to go well for you. It is such a good feeling to start going in the right direction.

    It is a great feeling indeed. I think as women we need enpowerment often. To help lift our spirits. Because together we can conquer. It feels good knowing I am not the only one who is fed up and willing to take charge. Just reaching out for help is a major step. And I appreciate you all who did , because that in its self can be a battle if you lack confidence due to weight gain. Solely speaking from experience.
