Hi everyone!
I've been using the app for 3 months now and in that time lost 28 lbs, still got 56lbs to go but now losing motivation!
I don't have a support network or a training partner so finding it really difficult to inspire myself!.
Want to get fit and healthy again to play with my little kids, and to do tough mudder. I used to do triathalons but put the weight on having D's no 4!
Look forward to chatting with you all :) x

    There's your inspiration right there... to play with the kids....if you give up now all your hard work will be for nothing, and you will be back to square one again wishing you could lose weight.
    28lbs loss is fantastic...surely the fact you can see such good results must help you stay motivated?
    Keep up the good work... :smile:

    Just sent you a friend request. Creating a supportive network of friends here who offer encouragement, advice, and truth has made all the difference in my experience and my success so far.

    Good luck!

    Thanks, don't actually notice the loss, so far, other have commented tho. Just easier said than done! I find training hard on my own, I have no one to challenge me! Had a pt for a few months but they have now moved.

    You're weight loss so far has been amazing, well done. It's hard to stay motivated, I understand that. I lost sight and trained last year to take part in the major series (similar thing to tough murder). After completing that though I slipped back into old habits and the weight piled on again. I have a 3 year old daughter and I've found she is my best motivation. I often work out in front of her so that she had an understanding of exercise/healthy lifestyle but even at 3 she knows it's hard work. She cheers me on and keeps pushing me till the end!
