in Introduce Yourself
Hi Everyone, my name is Francesca, I've been up and down with my weight loss, I lost 30lbs in 2012, but then I just sort of hit a weight I didn't hate, instead of one I loved and stopped there. Over the course of the last year, with lots going on and and some minor runs of illness my maintenance has slipped and I'm back up to a weight that I'm not very happy to be.

My goal is to get back down to the weight I was before, and then to go a little further- hopefully to my ideal goal weight for my height. My plan is to lose 30lbs through a healthy diet and lots of exercise over the next few months. I've found that its a lot easier with support and accountability, so if anyone wants to add me that would be great. I have an open diary so you can see when and where I'm going wrong, and hopefully set me right :)

    Hey let's do this. I've been exactly the same I balooned a few years back and then slowly but surely battled my way down to a weight I was kind of comfortable with, but it's still miles off the dream weight. So I've stagnated at that weight but I'm looking for people to help me kick on and finally lose that last 40lbs. You in?

    22 just had my first baby and ready to lose that baby weight. I just started looking in the mirror and realizing how big i actuallly was and it was frightening! I need to get healthy for my new baby and so I can finally feel comfortable with myself. Looking forward to going on this journey with you all! I'm trying to lose around 45lbs I just started my lifestyle change two days ago so let the journey begin! :)

    I've been yo-yoing around with diet and weight loss for months... I actually just promised myself starting yesterday that this would be my start to a serious lifestyle change! I'm 21, 5'9" looking to go fro 175 to 145-150... hopefully by the end of school in June. I'm starting with a low carb, high fat diet, and will try incorporating exercise as I get more comfortable.

    Add me and let's do this!!

    Hello! I'm looking weight seriously for the first time in my life, I'm 20 and I've never had a bmi higher than 25, and I've used it as an excuse not to hit a weight I'm happy with. Well no more, I deserve to feel comfortable in my own skin. Feel free to add :)
