New and looking for people for motivation

Options
G’day peeps.

I’m new to this app and I’m looking for some people to friend that I can assist with there journey and help keep motivated.

I’ve been on my journey for 3 years now and have currently lost 85kg or 187lbs. 3 years ago I was a ridiculous 200kg or 440lbs and I was told by my doctor that, if I didn’t make a change ASAP I would not live to see the age of 32. I’m now 34 and maybe the best I have felt in my life.

My goal is to 1 day compete in bodybuilding!

I would love to know some new people and help assist with there journey and also have some people assist in helping me stay on track and motivated.

Cheers 👍💥💪

    I’ve been battling with weight for almost ten years now. I don’t have a good support system. And personally don’t have enough knowledge. So this is a daily learning curve for me. I’m currently 260ish with over 100 to lose according to doctors. Would love friends that want to see me succeed and that I can watch as they are on their own personal journey.

    If its any more motivating.... Its more difficult to lose small amounts like 30lbs. Than larger amounts...... You'll get there.....don't get discouraged

    Hi, I have been battling with weight issues my entire life as well.
    I started by making little changes and gradually getting better as time went on. Don’t try to make drastic changes instantly as this is where most people fall off the track and go back to previous bad habits.
    I’ve travelled this journey on my own as well and it can be difficult but not impossible.
    If you ever need a chat, just msg and I’ll be happy to chat and assist in any way I can.

    This is true as our bodies adapt to the changes therefore making it increasingly harder as we progress.
    This is where we have to frequently change how we are going with our training and eating to shock our body and not allowing it to become routine. Our bodies and minds love routine
