Hello everyone. I am starting over and looking for new friends. Please add me so we can do this together. I need all the help, advice and motivation I can get to stay on track. I may be needing surgery and I will be even more
unmotivated. Please I am not looking for anyone trying to sell me anything!!! Thanks

    hello! look into yin yoga, concentrating on the spine. i always feel great after a session.
  • Hello. :) I have fibromyaligia, and my doctor is recommending surgery for a bulging disk that is pressing on my sciatica. I understand the challenges of trying to lose weight (or honestly even simply trying not to gain weight) with back trouble. We can do this. <3 Feel free to add me, if you would like to be friends.

    Hey there, I know the struggle. I have been dealing with the yo-yo effect my whole life.. gain, lose , gain, lose... this time I want to do it right and realize it's more of a mental thing than anything else. Not calling this a diet but a lifestyle change and can use all the motivation I can get. We can do it!

    I know the struggle. I have a walker because of my health issues but you can do it! Focus on eating healthy.

    I know the feeling looking the weight makes it so much easier you can do it just take it one day at time
