in Introduce Yourself
Went to the doctor and heard the news Ive been dreading all year. Yes I am overweight and need to lose weight. 50lbs to be exact.
Is there anyone else with a huge goal for the new year? I'd love to add people with similar goals.

    I've been overweight for several years. I lose and gain pretty easy so it shouldn't be too tough for me. It's the sticking to it part that gets me. I quit halfway through every time but hoping not this time.

    I make short goals but my overall goal is to lose 50-65 lbs. I definitely don't look like I have that much since I'm tall but that's what I used to be and want to get to it again. You can add me :). But the only person stopping yourself from succeeding is yourself. Got to be strong willed.

    Yeah for me I always thought I looked normal and then all the Christmas photos happened. Ugh, just comparing them to last year photos was enough of an eye opener. I'm the same way I start and stop Idk why because the last time I lost weight I was down to 120lbs and I felt really good!

    I need to lose around 150lbs to 180lbs :) Feel free to add me!
    I lost 140 once and almost got to my goal weight but some things happened in my life so i really curbed my fitness and eating healthy. But I did it once so i can certainly do it again! :)

    Exactly! Good luck on your journey! I'll send you a request.

    Thank you very much! Hardest part for me was getting started. Then it just all becomes apart of everyday life. But i am very thankful i finally decided to give it a shot. I haven't been this weight since i was about 17 yrs old, im 25 now. And feel absolutely amazing compared to when i was at my heaviest

    That's awesome! I know the feeling but I just stopped sticking with it. My lowest was 100lbs, but I'm also very short now I'm 160!! I don't even know how it happened but I hope to reverse the damage and get my youth back.

    I've lost 35, stalled out at Christmas, and am getting back into it. I want to lose another 75. It's so simple that anyone can do it (barring cravings, hormones, temptations, lack of will, and lack of motivation...been there!). Best of luck!
