Hey there. I'm Aileen. Lover of words, pizza, and the three male scallywags that call me mother.
Looking to add some new friends, beyond those I know in real life.
I lost 75 pounds several years ago and have really struggled this past year. Today marks 30 days into my recommitment to hit something that resembles my target life and weight.
Any adds welcome. Sacred and profane.

    Hello branchmillsmom. Congrats on such a large WL in the past. That's superhuman. It's all a matter of getting your head in the right space. Once you're in that space WL seems effortless. I'm currently in that space. I've had no choice a few times lately to eat bread while I'm out ( all my friends want lunch at the bakery and they don't know I'm dieting ). So I've just done it, but it hasn't changed my resolve. I just eat a bit less the day after. How is your WL going now?

    Right now I'm down 7 pounds. Started at 167 this time. My goal is somewhere around 135 or 140.

    Hi, I'm Debs, I'm a mum of two girls six and four. Congrats on your 75 pound weight loss before - amazing! I am trying to lose about 20 pounds. If you (or anyone else on this thread!) would be interested in trying out a weight loss listening partnership, let me know. It's basically checking in with each by phone or skype each day. So we would each spend say five minutes talking about anything to do with our weight loss while the other person just listens and then swap roles. I'm the UK but happy to swap with anyone in the world if it fits in timewise!
