Hi my name is Rachel and I'm not technically new, but I am starting my weight-loss journey again. I would really like to build some friends and support. We don't have to be at the same place or have the same goals, but having someone there for you to support your journey always makes it easier. I am going to count my calories, drink more water, and restrict the periods of time that I eat. I'm starting off at about 300 lbs and I'm looking to literally cut that in half. I'm starting off my exercise with swimming and zumba. I welcome all connections :smile:

    Awesome! PNW unite! I'm trying to walk my dogs more and I hear walking is great for weight loss and for overall mood!

    Hi, I'm also in Portland. Can't wait for all this smoke to be gone! I haven't had any sodas for about 5 months now. Feel free to add me!
