    Hey everyone! 49 year old dad of 3 college aged boys. Now that they're out I've realized how little I paid attention to me...that all changed a year ago and I been on a slow path of change. (It's like trying to change the course of a super tanker!).

    Things with diet and exercise that were focused effort a year ago are becoming "lifestyle", but it is such a slippery path with plenty of diversions along the way. Here to help others and feed off the positive so many of you are great at!

    Life is good!

    I would love to have anyone that would be supportive and motivational. I am currently on a low carb diet. My biggest struggle is finding the time to exercise. I have a very sedentary job, drive a lot, and try to squeeze in workout when I can. Please add me and let's do this!

    Hello. I am April. I have been on my weight loss journey a little over 3 yrs. I have lost 71(ish) lbs. I love encouraging and supporting. It's not a diet or a phase. It's a lifestyle change. It takes tons of support. I am also gluten free! Not by choice! Ha! I also suffered with an eating disorder in high school and when I started trying to lose weight again. And that too is still a daily struggle. I am a very open & honest person. My past has made me who I am today. I have two boys who are motivation! I'm always looking for new friends. I love chatting, supporting and encouraging! :)

    Hi I would really appreciate as many friends on here as possible as I think it will make the journey so much better. I joined a couple of weeks ago lost a few lbs then had a holiday and put them back on again (no surprises there) :-) anyway I'm getting back to the healthy stuff as of now. I am a 36 year old mum of two with about 45lb to lose - I want to be able to do all the fun things with my children without any hindrance from my weight and fitness.

    Feel free to add me! I'm 28 years old and from Atlanta Georgia. I am a preschool teacher and a mom of 3 kids. I've been using this app for a while, but recently became more serious about it since I started working full time and lost about 30lbs. I was a SAHM before, and working made a huge difference for me! Seeing the weight come off made me want to lose more! I'd like to lose another 50lbs and then go from there.

    Hello! I would like to build a community of friends. I think it will help me stay accountable. After struggling with a heart condition for three years, with a lot of sitting, I have 100lbs to lose and I know I have to exercise and tweak my diet to do it. I'd love to receive some friend requests!

    @lesliearkansas I've just sent a request! I'm in the same boat of sorts with having 6 casts in 3-4 years due to being hit as a pedestrian :( I've gained a lot over that time but have successfully lost 20+ lbs in 3 months...very very carefully!

    I've also posted in the community under "support and motivation" trying to find other people like you and me who are recovering too! Post there as well if that works for you!
