Hi everyone, I have quite a battle ahead of me. I need to lose about 9 stones in weight. I'm hoping to find people in a similar situation who would like to join me so that we can support each other through this journey and lifestyle change.

This is not the first time I've tried to lose weight. I seem to be able to last for about 5 weeks and then I give in completely to SUGAR. Grrrrr. This time I want it to be different and it will be. I don't know why I feel different this time but I'm convinced I will make it passed the 5 weeks and hopefully to my end goal.

    I am not at the start of my journey. Actually, I'm about 2 years into it... i started lifting in 2014. However, I would still love to be friends with you!

    I have a similar issue. I do great for a month or two and then sugar gets me and I start having too many cheat days..then too many rest days..then I wake up one day and realize it's been 8 months since I last worked out or tried to eat well. But for some reason I started this time and also felt like something was different. I really think I can do it now. I am looking to lose 65 lbs. Good luck to us both! :)

    I'm new to not being so lonely, both in getting in shape and in life. I'd enjoy some world-wide support, motivation, and the ability to give it back.

    Feel free to add me!
  • I'm looking for friends and motivation as well. I have been on and off again with weight loss I cant ever seem to go past a month, but like you said this time feels different. I have actually started meal prep today so that's is also new to me (I feel like I'm lost during the prep) lol but I am DETERMINED to eat healthy and to lose all of the weight I want off.
