Hi, I am a 38 year old single mom with two girls, one in high school. I have lost just over 19 lbs and have 130 to go. I have minimal support in real life and would love to find someone to check in with daily over all the struggles. I would love to find someone in a similar situation with similar goals!

    You can friend me. I am 39 - almost 40 with a slow metabolism. I have lost weight before and then gained it back due to a traumatic situation in my life. I am losing it again- lost 15 lbs so far. I would love to help you. I have about 40 pounds to go. I just went to size 14 from a 16 and it took me six weeks. Four years ago it only took me three weeks so I am shocked by how long it is taking me to lose the weight when I am working my butt off. I am a single mom also with two boys- one is Autistic and he is on a weight loss program too. He has lost 20 lbs so far.

    I only have 25-30 pounds to lose and I'm a younger mom, but definitely not where I wanna be and could use the motivation to help lose the baby weight and the excess I like to say is baby weight haha :)
