Hello all-
My name is Sara, I turned 27 a few days ago, and I am in the middle of my weight loss journey.
Since the first week of February/2015, I've lost right about 74 lbs- the most I've ever lost in my life. And to meet my goal, I still have just over 90+ to go.
When I started this journey, I was looking at myself at a weight I had never in my life thought I would see, I was desperate, I didn't much like myself, and I was faking a smile every day. I made a decision and from the first day I began sticking with it.
I completely overhauled my daily diet, and I committed to learning how to live a new lifestyle.
After the first few months of really fast weight loss, I've began releasing weight in slower amounts, but I still lose weekly, even when it's a half a pound here and there. And I'm ecstatic with that- any loss is good loss!
Anyhow, I finally felt comfortable enough to try to tell my story and search for a broader network of friends- and I hope I find some, here. Thanks!

Thank you! I would love to add you! This is my second profile here, I have one I started years ago, and I didn't keep up with it, though it would show some of my weight loss ups and downs if I could remember the sign on info. I just felt like starting fresh. I'm in a different place in my life, and I'm finally in the right headspace0

I think I am where you were in Feb, and you have done amazing! It is so reassuring to know it can be done, and how I feel at the moment is not something happening to me in isolation. I need the motivational push with this app, if you do need like minded people and dont mind sharing the woes add me please.0
