    Hope it's not too late to join!
    My name is Lily.
    Age: 41 Height: 5'4
    Weight: 170lbs

    About me:
    I am married and we have 2 furkids (cats).
    I love playing tennis, Racquetball and golf .. always looking for a tennis hitting partner if your in Tri-Cities (Port Moody, Coquitlam or Port Coquitlam, BC)

    Why am I here? I gained 10 lbs in the last 6 weeks. I had carpal tunnel surgery in November and used the surgery as a excuse not to workout. Then we had Christmas - the food and drinks.. you know how it goes. I return to work on Dec. 29 and I had to go buy another pair of work pants one size up.. Sigh...

    My job is physical so it keeps me moving during the day. My issue is when I get off work, I am tired and don't want to do anything but sit and relax on the couch.

    I need support, motivation and accountability! I would love to lose 20lbs by March but my goal weight is 140lbs. It would be such a great start!

    Hi! I would love to join. My name is Tricia. I am 37, 5'6" and currently at 165 lbs. I would like to lose a total of 40-50lbs total.

    I think setting smaller goals will help. So far since I started trying I have lost about 4 lbs in about 2 months. I could really use accountability. I struggle to stay motivated in my own.

    I have a membership at a gym but have had a hard time convincing myself to stop working and actually go workout. I love to have support in this weight loss process and provide extra support for someone else!

    I found it on my cell phone app by clicking the magnifying glass at the top of the screen, searching "Svelte by Spring," and then limiting the search results to "groups" only, so all those other threads and comments didn't show up. I hope that helps you!

    I have used this app before and went from 180 lbs to 135lbs then stopped using it and maintained my weight for months until I started working in a bar and it's been downhill from there. I quit working there but not before I put back on about 15lbs. I am 5'7" & a stay home mom of 5. This app worked for me when I was motivated but now it's cold and depression and guilt and bad habits have set in and I would love some accountability buddies who understand how hard it can be to get back on and stay on track.

I would love to lose just 2 pounds a week so this is very doable! I will be weighing in on Wednesdays! I know it seems crazy to begin this before Christmas, but I have to start now! I can't go another couple of weeks until January 1st!

    A little about me:
    I am married to an amazing man, and we have an 18 month old daughter!
    Occupation: I am an R.N. per diem in a surgery center, but I mostly am able to stay home with my sweet baby!
    Favorite Color: Green
    Favorite Store to shop in: J Crew, Anthropologie and Target of course! ;)
    Favorite Hobbies: kayaking, cooking, sewing, photography, traveling!
    An interesting fact: My husband and I lived in Africa for 3 months back in 2012!

    Your turn! Ladies, feel free to add me! Let's do this!

    Svelte by Spring is the name of our group! ;)

    I would absolutely love to go through this together with you!! And everyone else on here, add me!!
