Hello all! This isn't my first go-around with this. I am looking for support to get me through this journey. I have struggled with weight for years. It definitely didn't get any easier after marriage and children. In October, I was diagnosed with PCOS so I've got that piled on top of the extra weight :( I'm going to be 30 in 2 years and I just want to be healthy. I want to be a healthy weight and I want to feel good again! Looking to lose 50-60ish pounds. Do-able? I sure hope so! Anyhow, I would love some new friends to join me and help me through this!

    Feel free to add me! I am in the same boat--I have struggled with healthy habits for years, and marriage and kids does make it tougher. I have tried MFP half-heartedly before, but I'm trying to make an effort to connect with others to support and encourage so that there is a little more incentive for sticking with it. I am working on a mini goal to lose 30 pounds before I turn 30 in June, and I have about 30 to go after that.

    50-60 pounds is definitely doable! You've got this :)

    Hey, you can add me! I've lost 50, maybe losing another 20. I have no idea! It's definitely quite the struggle but it's doable! :)

    Hey, I'm not sure if it helps any, but I'm trying to get fit before 40! So you've got a whole ten years to enjoy yourself before you have to start worrying like me.
