in Introduce Yourself
Trying to finally get in shape and stick with it. I've lost weight in the past, but due to my inconsistencies I've gained it back. Would love some motivation on here. Currently have lost 10lbs since the new year. My goal is to lose 10lbs a month, hope I can continue to do so. Please add me if you would like to stay accountable. Pray you meet all of your health goals!

    Thank you Patrick, we can encourage each other! This year I've decided to make small changes at a time, instead of going cold turkey on certain foods. Thought I would give a disclaimer as you read my diary

    I like that you said cold turkey. I always compare weight loss to quitting smoking when I think about it. I always have the one isn't okay mentality even though I give into food temptations recently. But good luck on your journey!

    Good luck on your journey, we're with you every step :)
    10lbs every month is gonna be really tough, don't get discouraged if it doesn't always work out, just push a little harder and remember to reward yourself for the smaller victories (like with a spa/manicure day!).

    I would love to help you as well. I need to lose about 100 lbs myself and need to have some accountability. I found a gym just 1/2 mile from where I live so I walk there instead of driving. Looks like we can all help each other complete our goals. I have cut out all processed foods entirely. Only eat real meat, vegetables and fruits. I feel so much better and feel like working out by getting rid of the bad foods. I can't give up coffee though. I have lost 27 lbs since December 1st and still losing.

    I have about 90 to go. I lost 45-50 in the last 7 months but I'm losing motivation. Add me and we can work together for support.

    Goodluck girl! Hope you reach your goal :-)
    I suggest not weighing yourself and instead take measurements. The scales can be pretty discouraging!
