Hey everyone :smile:

I've been here before, but this time feels different. I've got a 3-week streak going and have been getting to the gym 4-6 times a week. I'm starting to see some small changes, and I'm really excited to keep going!

This is usually where I start slacking off, so I thought having a community here might help. I'd love to meet people with similar goals (50+ lbs to lose with a mind on health, not being skinny). I would love to link up with other gay ladies, too, since most of the weight I gained was when I was in a relationship, and it seems a lot of lesbians struggle with the same thing.

Feel free to add me! Looking forward to reaching our goals together!

    Hello! I'm 26 going on 27. I have about, oh, a whole person to lose! Weight loss has been a roller coaster. Up 10, down 30, up 15, down 5, up 10.... Ugh. I'm honestly thinking of having surgery done.

    Also, I don't think "relationship weight" has anything to do with being gay. I'm gay too, and in a long term relationship. Between my girlfriend and I, we are our own worse enemies! We do convenience. When one is dieting the other isn't. One person wants a treat and the other person indulges too! All types relationships go through these battles. Some more then others.

    Good call! Just speaking from experience regarding the gay thing. I know it happens to couples, but I see it a lot in the lesbian community and there have been recent studies about it, too. Will add you!

    I would love to connect. My wife and I talk about this all the time. We recently moved to Texas and see so many lesbian couples who are overweight. We want to be one less couple.

    would love to connect with all of you, too. luckily for me, my GF is the healthiest human on earth and keeps me on track, but i'm always looking to connect with other lesbians and will offer any support I can!
