Hi

So I've had this app and had attempts a few times to lose weight.

I had a baby 6&1/2 months ago and also have 3 yr old. I'm self employed and also a third year law student. With all this going on I've put off losing weight or given it a half baked attempt.

However three days ago I decided to go back to the gym, eat a lot less food & generally be better.

I'm looking for some friends that are also on a 100+lbs loss journey so that I don't lose this motivation.

    Hi! I'm trying to loose 100 too (though I've started already so I'm down to 80-something)! I've got a little one, he's 2.5 and seems to have inherited my fathers ability to eat a pizza and use that energy to grow hair. I'd love to hang out via app and even trade off tips on making sure my kid doesn't go down the same path I did.
    Also, I'm jealous of your hair.

    When I started this journey (Nov'14) I had 113 pounds to lose. Now I am down to having 58 pounds to lose. You can do this girl!! I am older and have some pretty challenging health problems, but I am doing so I know that you can!! Set your goal and don't let anything get in your way. Be more determined than motivated. It will get you farther. Count every calorie you put in your mouth. Exercise is good, but it's all about calories in vs. calories out. Join a challenge group, I have found that they are helpful. There is one that starts this week, I will put the link below. You can do it Louise!!!!

    Thanks for your reply! It's very daunting and disappointed in myself for letting it get this bad.

    Onwards (and downwards!) got my head truly in the game

    Hi there! I don't have 100lbs to lose (I want to lose about 60), but I still wanted to chime in since I am new as well. I have a 6 year old daughter. I've also gone back and forth with trying to lose weight, but every time I give up and end up gaining a ton. :s

    I wish you the best with your weight loss journey! We are all tough and we can do this! Hang in there! ☺️
