Need friends for support!

Hello I'm starting over again. I lost 60lps but put it all back on and then some after quitting smoking. I feel very motivated just need active friends to motivate me. I just turned 40. I have two wonderful children that have autism. I'm a sugar addict with emotional eating on the side. Look forward to dropping the pounds!!

    I too am starting over I lost 30 lbs then put back 15 lbs. I was not yet at my goal with the 30 lb loss Now I need to lose 50lbs.
    I need help with night eating after dinner. I turn to sweets & have no limits. Helpful suggestions please

    Same here, got down to 200 and now at 261. Not fun! Just started weight training and healthier eating this week, already feeling a little better in my own skin. Also have two young kids and eat when I'm bored or avoiding things that cause anxiety. Good luck and add me :smiley:, friend!

    It's very discouraging putting it all back on. But at least we know we can do it. And I'm ready to make it stick!! I have to find something better then eating to releave stress.

    I am too on here daily. Want to lose 50-60 lbs but my current goal is to just see the scale start to move and to enter my calories in everyday. Feel free to add me for motivation. Good luck!

    I'm not super active but I do have an open food diary and I log my exercise when I do it. You can definitely friend me.
