Hi! I'm 26 years old and have struggled with my weight my entire life. I have PCOS so its a little more difficult for me to lose and keep the weight off then most, but as I get older its becoming more important that I get it together. I'm genuinely concerned that if I don't get my ducks in a row that I will not be able to have children one day and that is something that I have always wanted. I love reading, music, and movies. I'm a nurse and I work midnights so my schedule is backwards from most people lol. I'm excited for the new friends and hope that we can watch each other lose the weight and reach our goals!

Hello, I'm Ashley. I'm 19 years old and live in the United States. I've been overweight for as long as I can remember, and it has impacted my social life and self esteem in a very negative way. I was never confident in school, and I think I missed out on a lot of opportunities because of it. I managed to lose around 30 pounds last year, but I gained nearly all of it back in my first year of college. Now that I've adjusted to college life, I'm determined to stick with my healthy lifestyle and become a better, stronger, thinner, sexier me!

I'm excited to get to know all of you

I'm Melanie and I live in the U.S. (Tucson, Az). I am 19 years old and going to college. I am not looking to lose too much weight. After high school, I gained about 25lbs while at my dorm (I didn't have a scale)! I had no idea my metabolism had dropped! So far, I have lost 10lbs, and am looking to lose another 8lbs. In high school, I struggled with anxiety and was actually underweight. I am 5'6 and was around 110lbs at my lowest and 118lbs at my highest. I am looking to be the healthy weight of 125lbs!
It has taken me a very long time to lose 10lbs, because i kept losing it, and then gaining it back (yo-yo dieting). When I am not stressed in my life, I am very addicted to food because I don't have a lot of other exciting things in my life. As i try to lose this weight, I am constantly fighting urges to eat more!

Hi Everyone,

I’m Angela and I’m 26 years old. 2 years ago I started my weight loss journey and lost 80lbs in a year; and in the past year I have gained almost all of it back. Last month I decided to get back on for good; and it has been a slow start but it’s going down instead of up. Besides the fact that I want to be healthier more confident, I am getting married in November and had gained 40 lbs since I bought my dress. My short term goal is to lose at least 40 in the next 4 months (previously I had lost 80 in 8 months- so I know that I can do it if I put my mind to it.) My fiancé was a really supportive and held me accountable when I lost the weight previously, but now that he is stationed in Texas it’s hard for me to keep me accountable with the distance. It’s always easier to lose weight with other people holding you accountable so I hope I can gain support, recipes, critiques and successes from the group to keep me motivated. Please feel free to add me 

What's up? My name is Eric from California. I'm 23 and currently getting a duel teaching credential for English and Spec Ed. I mostly read or watch movies, nothing too exciting, but I prefer being in an air-conditioned room haha. Right now I'm 325, having started at 340. I'm hoping to get to my sophomore year of high school weight of around 240-250 (I've been 6'3'' since 8th grade so I know it's possible). Right now, I'm following a pescatarian diet where I eat mainly vegetarian but with fish added every once in a while.
That being said, less doo theees

Hey everybody! Sorry, I'm a little late to the party, but here's a little about me. I'm 24 (tomorrow) and a graduate student studying sea turtle physiology in Louisiana. I've always been overweight, but got to my highest weight of 271 lbs during my senior year of college. I had 6 months between my undergrad degree and the start of graduate school, so I decided to take that opportunity to start changing my lifestyle. My lifelong dream has been to save sea turtles, and it requires a very active lifestyle. I've realized if I want to stay in this field, I'm going to have to lose the weight and get in shape! Over the past 16 months, I've lost 57 pounds. I've been a little disappointed that it hasn't come off faster, but I'm pretty proud of the fact that I've been able to lose steadily and keep it off despite 3 huge moves, leaving my entire family, friends and boyfriend behind and starting a much more intense academic program. I ran my first 5k last fall, and have been working on getting into weight training and HIIT. My goal is to lose a total of 130 lbs, getting me to 140 lbs. I've been plateauing for so long that I sometimes get frustrated, it seemed so much easier in the beginning! But, I'm hoping that having a more accurate way of tracking calories burned throughout the day will help me to create a calorie deficit day to day - I just got a fitbit and a polar ft4 for my birthday. I have a few friends at home and school that are also trying to lose, but I need a larger group of friends to help support me as I try to break through this plateau and lose again! Please feel free to add me!
