Hi everyone,
My name is Cheryl. I'm a 44 year old mother of seven.With five of my kids are grown now
and my youngest starting high school next month. I now have more time to focus on my
health and weight. I signed up on here a year ago, but found this crazy juice fast diet I
decided to do instead. I lost weight for half of last year then spent the other half gaining it
back plus some. So this year I'm trying a more reasonable approach.,(actually eating food
and learning to do it right). I started June 5th, needing to lose 133 pounds to make it to my
goal. So far, so good! I know we can all do this!!! Good luck everyone! Feel free to
add me I would love friends and support on this journey.

Arsh, 29, 5'6" and have about 150 pounds to lose. I want my mid thirties to be happy and healthy, not terrified and sickly like my late 20's.
I'm a lesbian, been with my wife for 14 years (tho marriage still isn't equal in our state, but as soon as it is...)
We have a daughter, 7, who is wonderful and is one of my inspirations. I have fed her healthy since she was born and she is healthy and thin and tall. I know eating right can give me the body I want. I've spent the past couple of years improving the content of my diet, now it's time to count the calories and break down this fat. I need to lose my giant gut like NOW!
I may possibly have hypothyroidism. Waiting for second test results. If so, that could explain a lot of my hard plateaus last time I tried this.
Serious buddies/support friends would be welcome.

Hi, I'm Selena

I am 18 years old. I'm originally from California and moved to Texas a few years ago. I'm a pretty motivating person. I have PCOS and it's been really hard for me to get the weight off and I just keep gaining. I gained a huge portion of my weight last year due to depression and stress and my hormones going out of whack.
I currently weight 272. My overall goal weight is 150. I know the journey will be long and a lot of hard work, but I'm tired of having no energy, being self conscious and being ridicule. I want it so much at this point in my life.

Anyone who feels the same way ADD me ☀️

Hi I'm Carol, I live in Wisconsin and amd getting married in 2017. On what will be our 5 year anniversary. I've been "fat" all my life I've gained about 70 pounds over the last year though that has taken me over the edge. Between my fiance moving in with me due to an accident, at that time we were in a failry new relationship to the constant eating out that my friends and I dubed "love pounds". Fast forward to a little over a month ago and at 354lbs I've gotten serious about getting healthy. I don't want children of my own for various reasons but I want to be the best Auntie I can be to all the kids in my life biological or not. I've got a long term goal of 180 but I break that down to 5 pounds at a time and only focus on that goal until its achieved. I have a few midrange goals like 12 weeks I want to be under 330 and 6 months to be under 300 but those aren't my focus. I log everything no matter how small. I've even contempated taking my food scale with me when I eat out. I'm going to bring it to my parents house this weekend but I think I'll leave it at home when we dine out. We don't dine out nearly as often as we once did. Mainly because he thought it was a treat for me not to have to cook but I do enjoy cooking and have always had for the most part good homecooked meals growing up at home on the farm and once I lived on my own.

I'm still working on willpower against chocolate and he doesn't help when he buys me a candy bar and a soda when he is out and about. If anyone has any ideas on who to get him on board with my goals. I've tried telling him more than once. It's not sinking in.

Add me I'm working hard at attaining my goals but can use any motivation I can get.

Hi, I'm popping in to meet everyone. I was on here about 2 years ago now and lost 70 lbs, got pregnant and gained almost all of it back (only half during the pregnancy). I need to get it off again plus some. I hate feeling so weighted down. At over 300 lbs and only 5'3" it is a bear to make it through the day at work then come home and have my baby expecting mommy to play when all mommy wants is to put her feet up. He has insisted on being held during my recent workouts so I guess we get bonding and exercise that way

Anywhoo I am here for support and supporting on my journey back to a healthy weight so feel free to add me if you would like

Hi, all!! I'm Sherry, 43...I have 110 pounds to lose and ready to get started!!

New year and it's time I start my journey! I have done this before and did not stick with it. I currently am sitting at 317 and need to lose this weight. I am 32 years old and am just tired of being this heavy. Right now to lose the weight I am watching my calories and carbs. Since I live in Iowa it's not easy to get out in the Winter so I will be walking and doing cardio at home. As soon as Spring hits I am going to be out hiking and enjoying nature. I hope that joining the groups this time will help me to really stick with it. If you want a friend on here add me Let's help each other!

Hi everyone! My name is Jessica, I am a 38 year old mother of 5 boys. One is 19 so he is on his own now. I work full time in information technology so I am sitting at a desk all day. My father is in extremely bad heath and has recently had his big toe amputated and within a month they will be taking his leg from above the knee. He has diabetes, heart disease, has blood clots in his leg behind his knee that they tried to clear but couldn't. I knew I needed to get on track and do something about my weight but his recent issues have given me the push or scared me enough to try to make it happen.

I have about 150lbs to loose to be in my confortable area, that is not what the doctors consider ideal weight but I would be fine with it.

I live in Tennessee and I am looking for a buddy or buddies to help stay on track, share stories and hardships and hopefully, become friends. Feel free to PM me or send a friend request.

Hello Everyone

I'm looking for an active group or peeps that will keep me accountable and motivated (just say no to the donuts). Thanks for reading and I look forward to being a part of this group.
