edited November 8 in Introduce Yourself
I downloaded this app again after almost a year. I did not do much the first time around besides the actual download. I posted a hello message earlier, but I don't know if it was the time of day or maybe I'm just that uninteresting but Ill try again.

I'm 37 and a mom of three boys 17 years and 14 year old twins. I have a very supportive partner, although neither of us seem to be on the same page at the same time, when it comes to incorporating healthy lifestyles. I once competed in a local city wide biggest loser contest and did quite well, but I feel it was probably because I was held accountable by a group. The contest ended as did my weight loss.

So now I'm starting over again from square one. I am looking to add friends who will hold me accountable and maybe check in and kick my *kitten* if they see I haven't been active. People who I can exchange information with, or learn from.....

People with similar interests are welcome as well... I like food (duh), music, movies, fishing, hiking, anything outside really.

    I'm back for a second round, fell off the wagon last time. Just started up a couple of days ago, so trying to get myself back into the mindset again. I didn't really reach out to people last time, so thought this time I should. Hopefully I can get some motivation from others :) Add me too!

    Welcome back. Consistency is your friend. Just keep logging (sometimes I call it slogging) and doing your honest best, and you'll get there. Good luck! :smile:

    :) Welcome back! I'm with you, I need others to hold me accountable so the more people on the same journey the merrier. Please feel free to add me and we can hopefully motivate one another to be consistant and honest with our tracking. If I feel like I didn't do well I would sometimes not log so if you see that I have not completed my journal for the day, call me out out it! Wishing success on your journey.

    Welcome! I think if you really give yourself over to the process....it could work. Having just started over myself... I have decided to really commit to at least tracking my food for now....I will add you!
