Currently 236.5lbs with a goal of losing about 70lbs, I know it's going to be a looooooong and hard journey so I'm looking for new friends who are trying to lose weight too so I can feel like I'm not so alone and we can motivate and encourage each other to reach our goals!!

    Hello..my name is Jackie, I weigh 219.6 lbs. I started eating healthy as of yesterday and it’s already hard. I just added this app today in hopes of it helping with losing 70lbs. Hopefully we can motivate and encourage each other to reach our goals.

    Hello hello! My starting weight is 335lbs, my overall goal is to be at 180lbs. I have to make smaller goals and the first one is to be under 300 lbs. how do you want to communicate? Weekly weigh ins? Or celebrating small wins? I’d love a group I can chat with!

    Hi. Working on this goal too. Started Jan 2. Lost 2 lbs so far. Got 70 to go. I usually start out strong but in a month or 2 will “fall off the wagon.” Looking for dedicated or want to be dedicated others who have this sort of goal to journey and encourage with.

    I do the same after a few weeks. Let’s be mindful that we have that loss of motivation and try to be aware of it. We can help each other to push through that moment!

    I’m starting over again. I lost 20lbs on Weight Watchers, got lazy posting, gained back 10lbs., and was tired of paying and gaining. My current weight is 199. I try to set small goals so I don’t set myself up for failure. My goal is to get to 170 this year. Hoping the community here can help keep me on track.
