in Introduce Yourself
Hey all...I'm back here for the 975th time. I'm hoping this time sticks! I've had success with losing weight in the past, but it always comes creeping back. I'm hoping to add some friends for motivation and accountability so that I will actually stick with it. I am 5'7" and have about 20 pounds to lose. I am 28, a wife, step mom, cat lover and I love to bake and work on landscaping. Add me if you'd like. :)

    Hi Lucy! I'm a cat lover too! I'm aiming to lose around 20lbs too, for an ideal weight of 10st / 9.5st :) I'm 5'6 but I've always had a curvy frame so I think 10st would be the ideal weight for me! Good luck with getting started! The first couple of weeks seem to be the hardest :)

    Thank you. I agree that the first couple of weeks are the hardest. Once I the junk foods out of my system it gets much easier to resist them. Good luck on your journey!

    Hi guys! I've also lost track on how many times I've been on this site:) I'm pretty good at working out and being active but it's food that I have a hard time with. I'm 5,4 and I need to lose another 20-25 pounds. I love to scuba dive, read, garden and travel. I'm married and have a 11 year daughter who rides and loves horses.:flowerforyou:

    It's tough sometimes doing this on your own, just try one day at a time. Add me and good luck!

    Lucy, You can do it. I to have trouble keeping the pounds off. I am also a 27 year old female. Although I am not married or a mother, I certainly understand the busy life. I work full time as a special needs teacher, attend night classes for my master's degree, work as a special needs companion on the weekends, and struggle to make it to the gym. Add me and we can keep each other motivated.
