Needing friends to help motivate me.

Hi. I am a busy mom of 3 young boys and I need to lose 100+ lbs. I am looking for friends to help motivate me along the way. I have been doing this for over a two months and working out. I feel better and I can see a difference in my appearance but the numbers just aren't dropping the way they should. In the last 3 weeks I've been up and down.
I know it's going to be a long journey and a lifetime commitment.

    I have nowhere near as much to lose but I know the struggle and commitment. I've been through it for many years. You have my encouragement and support. :)

    Hey there. Feel free to add me. :) I am needing to lose 223 lbs to get to my goal, how ever...I am getting weight loss surgery in August. I am getting the sleeve. I need to lose 40-50 lbs between now and then. I've got 2 full months to do it!! I hope to be close to 40-50 lbs anyway. Good luck to you!! I am here if u need me.

    You can add me....Everyone needs support and motivation. With 3 little ones it is probably hard for you to find time for yourself. But you have to schedule "your time." Plan for it! I find writing down everything I put in my mouth with the calorie count helps keep me honest. I monitor my steps per day and calories burned.. Do it for yourself...you CAN do it for sure.
