Hi, my name is Kellee and I'm new here. I'm looking for friends around my age group who have (or had) about 30-40 pounds to lose. I'm looking for lots of encouragement and hope to be able to provide the same to you. :smile: Have a wonderful day!

    Hi I'm LeighAnn, Im 42 and I have 28lbs I have to lose...I have been on here for 3 days now and would love a friend also because it seems like it would help. I see that I have problems snacking..I mean I just ate dinner and before I knew it, I wanted to snack on something chocolate...I ended up having some Nutella, but I really didnt need it and it made me feel defeated. do you ever eat a snack RIGHT AFTER dinner?

    Hi Leigh-Ann,

    I almost always feel the need to eat a snack straight after meals. :( I don't know why as clearly I don't actually need it but I guess it is habit. I have been trying to tell myself to wait half an hour and see if I still want it then but it is hard!

    What I hate the most is that I did good all day, I actually exercised and walked my dog, and then I go and eat something I didn't really want or especially need. Im getting to know this website a little better and Im checking out all the cool stuff, but I dont know how to add you as a friend...Im gonna look, but if you know you can certainly add me :smile:

    Yes! I'm 35 and would like to lose about 30. I just joined here on Friday and am learning my way around but I could also use all the encouragement I can get.

    And I feel like every night after dinner I need something sweet too--my weakness!! :blushing:

    Hi there everyone
    I'm 37 and have 30lb plus to lose. I need to lose weight in order to have surgery on my hip so I'm desperately trying to be good! Losing weight is sooooo difficult and I feel this is something I have struggled with all my life!
    I'd love to be friends feel free to add me and send me a message.

    I am always feeling that if I eat something extra that I should not that I have ruined the whole day which I am starting to realise is just not the case. I am quite sure you did not eat so much Nutella that you ruined what sounds like a very good day - both diet and exercise wise :)
