I just started exercising and diet again. I have a goal of about 80 lbs to lose. I don't have any work out buddies so I was seeing about getting some friends on here that way we could help and support each other :) I'm on a 1360 calorie diet. I am trying not to weigh myself until July 6th. Anyone is welcome to add me on here :)

    If you are just starting, not weighting often doesn't sound good. You need to be able to see how it is going and adjust accordingly.
    Get a trending app and use it. Most people here do that and weigh everyday.

    First goal for me is 125...we will see how that suits me, may re-evaluate after that and go down just a bit more, but for now, will be happy with 125...

    I want to lose 75 lbs I started March 1st and have lost 23 lbs so far. I don't have a thyroid so this is a little struggle for me. I have adapted to the decrease in calories and even the substitutions on food. I am very faithful at logging everything. Add me we call all support each other

    I gave about 70 more to go and can totally use the support and insight. Feel free to add me. About a year ago I found out I had a thyroid problem which affected my weight loss journey but now it's all under control and I'm ready to get back on it

    Hiya! I have over 100lbs that I want to lose to be at my optimal health! I'm not doing so great at it so far. I know that I would do so much better if I had support and someone to kind of kick me in the butt and call me out. LOL! I'd love to be a support buddy for you! :smile: Or anyone else who wants to!

    Is there a reason most people don't make their diary open to friends on here? I'm just curious because I like seeing what others are eating and gain ideas.

    About 120 to lose. You can check out "Losing is Winning" group. It's a little slow now but it should pick up.
