hi, I'm new here. i have been battling with weight for a long time, and every time I lose I gain more back. Started with just s few pounds now I need to lose 70 :( would like a group that count on each other to exchange regular encouragement, for long term goals so I don't just give up and stop tracking like usual. Thanks for listening.

    Thanks all for the welcome, I've been in here in spurts for a month or two, but I'm now feeling ready to be more serious. I have been going to the gym since October but until I curb my eating habits I'm thinking it's almost wasting my time, so here I go.

    Hi, I've been on this for a bit but never been dedicated to doing it daily until now. I need to lose 60 pounds. Hoping to lose 20-30lbs in the next 6 months before my wedding or at least be heading in that direction and feeling proud of myself even if I don't reach it. I know its a long process but I've got to start being diligent about it now and change my mindset. Looking for friends and if people are using fit bit I would love to add some people their for "challenges" to keep me going. :) Thanks!
