Hello everyone!

I am looking to start this journey over again. I've yo-yoed with my weight my whole life. I'm right now at my largest that I've been ever. This year has been sincerely one of the worst of my life in terms of all the changes and losses I've experienced. I broke up with my partner of 6 years, my doggies and the home I'd built together are all gone. I'm on my own and I'm sure my weight gain contributed to the downfall of my relationship. I truly don't want to spend another year with this weight and lack of motivation to improve myself.

I'm such a great supporter and will be there every step of the way for others, I just truly need to work on being there for myself. I found this awesome picture and this has made me want to really do this.

I hope to get to know some of you more as we work on becoming the best versions of ourselves! dufuhj8bilxg.jpeg

    Encouragement I feel has kept me going! I know I haven't changed overnight but sometimes just hearing my close friends and bf say you look more toned or great job fitting into something I haven't worn in years is definitely a boost!

    Friend request sent!!

    2016 was not great for a lot of folks. As the new year approaches, I too am trying to get back on the weight loss train. I need accountability and encouragement and would do the same for anyone who needs it. Keep your head up and lets do this thing!

    Really sorry to hear about this tough time for you, but I love your honesty and attitude. I hope I can be of help to you and your weight loss journey! Great time to start with the new year approaching! I will send you an add!
  • I've yo-yoed weight as well. I'm Monica and I'm new to fitness pal and am looking for a few friends to be each other's coach and motivation.
    My goal is to lose 50-70lbs and it's definitely time to make this change!
    I am hoping to find someone with the same weight loss goals who are serious and determined about making this change as I am.
    If this interests you please add me.

    Feel free to add me! I have been on the yoyo road my entire life. 2016 I lost 34lbs and was working my way down to be my "pre children" weight. I fit a rough patch in September and in these few months gained it all back. I feel ashamed of what I have done to myself. But I know a new day is a new chance to change and the New year will be positive progress. Good luck to everyone on this post!
  • Anyone of you feel free to add me too. Support is what it's all about, and the people here are Great!!!
