Hi my name is Cara! I have lost 23lbs of my 90lb weight loss goal. I really just need some friends who have similar weight loss goals. I started gaining weight about six years ago. I went from 135lbs to 224lbs. I'm a married mother of five. I have a busy life and really just need a friend on the same journey.

I'm a mom of 2 (5yo boy & 2yo girl) the pounds have crept up over the years and I want to be able to play with my kids. Stopped BFing about 6 months ago & really noticed a jump in my weight. I'm at 181lbs right now and want to be around 140 or less. Add me if you'd like!0

I'm Rebecca - I'm 32, and have 2 step children. I have already lost about 60 pounds from my highest weight, but I am currently at 226.2, on my way to 145. I still have 80 pounds to go... and it's very hard. I'm always looking for support, and would be happy to do the same for you! I just sent you a friend request Cara - anyone else can send me a friend request too!0

My mom started LCHF (Low Carb High Fat) about a year ago and has had AMAZING results. So I figured, what the hell...I've tried everything else out there why not this?! I'm fell off the wagon a few time, but am in it for the long haul now. I have loved roller derby and skating since I was a kid, but after gaining this weight, I never dreamed of trying again. Well, I tried again and LOVE IT!! Before skating again, I'm down from 330# to 284# currently, just with LCHF. Even falling off the wagon I haven't been above 290. Since skating and LCHF, the inches are coming off and so is the weight! I even have my end goal as being a derby girl!! If you can I highly recommend skating, it is low impact, (even with a back injury for being a Corrections Officer) it feels amazing! It still gets my nerves up when we first get going, but after a couple minutes I'm gone lol! Right now we do about a 1/2 hour every day, with the exception of this morning we went a full hour, 3.64 miles. It is fun, so it doesn't feel like exercise!

Hello everyone, I am a mom of two and need to lose about 90 pounds as well. I have just quit weight watchers and am back on MFP. I am looking for friends as well (a lot of my friends from before dropped off as I was not active on MFP for a while). I have recently in the last 6 months gained 30 of those 90 pounds due in part to some meds I was on. I have stopped those meds recently and am back to try and lose this (even larger) mountain of weight.0
