I'm Gonna Make It!

:heart: Hello all. :heart:

My name is Leigh. I just came across this website today! I started my fitness journey yesterday and need a little support and motivation. I'm currently at 270 lbs and would like to make it to 140. I'm 24 years old . . . it's about time!!!!

Question: How do I get my ticker up as my signature?

Thanks. :wink:

Nice to meet you all! Hope this will be a wonderful website to visit on a daily basis.

  • I haven't been here very long either!

    so nice to meet you!

    I love the title! because you ARE going to make it, just stay focused and it will happen for you,

    i used to be 182 lbs at the age of 16! I decided to stop drinking soda and eating better while working out, and the weight didnt go at first but the next thing you knew, it was falling off...i know every body is diffrent! but you can def do it...

    i got down to 140 and stayed there for a few years! i turned 21 and started drinking...((worked at a bar)) and gained weight now i'm at 165! i want to be back to my normal weight of 140-135!

    nice to have you here! message me anytime im always down to meet buddies and help each other with motivation!!!

    Yes, you are gonna make it!! Wanna know why????

    Almost a year ago (On Sept 6)...I weighed in at 270 myself....

    And am down 110 lbs so far!

    It is very possible and I am living proof that it can happen the slow and steady way.....and that a year can make a HUGE difference in your life!

    Good luck to you!!!! :flowerforyou:
