    Looking to lose 80 pounds. Currently, weight 219. Most of my life I hovered around 150 - 170 so I don't really know how this happened. Went to the RD and she recommended that I try to get 150- 180 carb g's a day. Kind of shocking since I had been doing low carb. I guess 130 is the minimum that your brain needs to function properly.Need to start exercising but always so tired after work. I have been getting up a half-hour earlier every day for the last week or two but no exercise yet. Just picking up around the house well today I did walk the dog around the yard for 15 minutes. Hello to everyone.

    Anyone who's seriously interested in encouragement can add me. I like back and comment frequently but most of the people I have added now never like or comment and it sucks!

    I would love to have accountability and support friends. I am 205 and would like to be 135, I'm 5'3". I've started and stopped do many weightloss journeys but I never get to my goal. I think I need to find support from others who have been through it, or are currently going through it, to help me with emotional eating, etc..
    I don't know how to connect, but my email is klaufenberg@outlook.com. I also
    Now have a Fitbit.

    I am stuck at 205 lbs! I am staying under calorie goal but I know I am eating way too much junk. I have to do better about eating my fruits and veggies.

    I need to lose about 60 pounds. I lost 30 using myfitnesspal about 3 years ago, and then I quit logging and gained it all back plus some. I need to just accept that I need to always be mindful of my calories and exercise. Not a diet, but a lifestyle change. I've been back at it again for a week. Doing good so far. Would really appreciate some supportive friends. Thanks!

    Hello! I am in the same boat. If anyone is interested, please add me, I am looking to keep myself accountable by posting my food, exercise and weight tracking to MFP. If you are looking for a fellow cheerleader to work on this together/ exchange recipes and ideas, etc please friend me!
