Start my 70 pound journey!

Hi there my name is Tia. I am starting out on a 70 pound journey on Monday. Haven't been to the gym in 5 months. I am fed up with myself at my heaviest currently and paying for a gym I don't go to at all. I am determined to make this my last time. Hopefully you all can help me along the way!

  • Hey Tia! I started my journey a week ago, and started tracking on MFP yesterday. 2016 will be our year to make things happen. You got this! I sent you a friends request. Hopefully you can help keep me motivated, and I will gladly do the same back. :)

    Same situation here. I've got 100 pounds to lose! I have a Planet Fitness membership and have only gone a handful of times. I actually love working out, it's just getting myself out of bed early enough in the morning to go.

    Hi. I logged the calories i was eating. Dropped it slightly to loss ten pounds at one time. It took one year to close to sixty pounds. I'm not hungry. Good luck.

    I totally understand!! It's not really working out when I am there... It's just getting there in the first place!

    I haven't been trying for half my life but its been damn close to it! I never got it right until about 2 years ago when I lost 60 pounds but then lost my job and as of right now gained it all back plus 10 extra for good measure. It is sad but I am determined thru ups and downs to make this the last "New me" I try to be :smile:
