edited November 15 in Motivation and Support
A little about me:
32 yo female
SW: 325
CW: 299.1 as of this morning

I don't follow any particular diet and I don't eat lean meat and veggies all day. If "junk" food offends you then you probably won't want to look at my diary. What I'm doing is working for me and I hope we can support one another regardless of our choices. Looking forward to supporting and motivating anyone who is as dedicated as I am.

    Hello, how are You? Don't feel bad about looking for support from other people, because sometimes when your not able to have that support from your own friends and family who can't relate to what you want to achieve...than there's nothing wrong with looking elsewhere. It's always nice to have someone who is honest, a good listener, and is willing to help motivate you without judgement throughout your weight loss journey. So if you want you can add me and I will always reply.

    Hi! Vegetarian with a generally not-too-unhealthy diary, but I get a couple of weekly treats in (and some stuff that sort of skirts the line between healthy and junk, like tortilla chips, bags of Skinny Pop popcorn, homemade sorbet, etc.)

    26 lbs? You're doing great!

    Friend me if you like!

    You're doing great. If it works for you then it works for you. I do not understand people that get mad about what others eat. If they try to convince me to eat what they think I should eat then yeah, but what do I care what they eat, their food is their business, my food is my business. The only time someone else should care about what another human eats is if it's a child.

    I sent you a request.

    Feel free to add me. I'm on here a lot during the day. I'm trying to go WFPB with my diet, so my diary will likely look very different from yours, but that's not a problem for me if it isn't a problem for you!

    I'm in the same boat. What I love about counting calories (as opposed to fad diets that have been unsuccessful for me) is I don't have to restrict my sweet tooth!

    I've been doing gluten free/dairy free. or trying my best. it's ok to indulge once in awhile. I've found if I don't, I fail. If I can eat more veggies than anything else, I think that's a win. Of course I need my protein too....anyone needing friends please add me. I like the support I feel from seeing 'so-and-so has logged in for 7 days.' wishing I was as skinny as I was in my profile pic....

    Congratulations on your weight loss!

    I don't log food at all or count calories. I eat what I want including fast food, and junk food so your diary certainly wouldn't offend; what works for you, works for you.

    If you'd like to be friends, feel free to send me a request; I'm always looking for more friends :)

    Hey there, feel free to add me if you want. Looks like you are on the right track so congratulations on your progress so far. This road to health will look different for each of us - it's a learning process of what works and doesn't work and that'll keep changing.

    I agree no need to feel like a dork. I started at 295 and am currently 230. I try not to eat wheat but it's for my health not as a fad. I try not to eat junk food but sometimes I do. I don't care what others eat if it works for them great!!! feel free to add me.
