Hello! My name is Ashley and I'm 23! Back in 2012 I lost around 70lbs and ended up gaining a lot (ugh basically all) of it back. I'm looking for other girls my age losing weight too to keep me motivated! I'm 10lbs down so far and I'm feeling good about it. Last time I was losing weight just to be skinny, now I'm doing it because I want my body to be healthy and I don't want anything to hold me back in life, especially my own body. So yeah, nice to meet you!

    Hey I know it's been a month since you posted this, but I'm in the same spot--I lost 40 pounds in 2012, and now I'm back up 30 pounds. It feels SO much harder the second time around. In 2012 I had never dieted or exercised (seriously) in my life, so the weight just fell off. I was going pretty crazy though--doing 90 minutes of cardio and eating 1200 calories/day (plus exercise cals). I'm hoping to be healthier this time around. Even if I just lose 10-20 pounds, that would put me right around where I want to be.
