Clearly tracking and keeping myself accountable is what works for me. This stinks! I’m 42 and a working mom. I can usually eat pretty well if I want to but lack motivation to workout. Looking for friends so we can keep each other motivated! I have a good 30lbs to lose and need to update my profile pic. 😒

    Hi I'm 43 had surgery and then an accident I was 189 last year I'm 223. I have a goal of 44 by my 44th birthday which is February 4th but it has to be nutritional since I'm still recovering. We can buddy up. Sonja

    Hi,
    I'm 35 and also a working mum. My little one is 2yo. I've lost my pregnancy weight quite fast but I was a bit too chubby before I got pregnant. I would like to lose 15lbs but like you I struggle for motivation to work out. I can be good for few weeks but then when I fall off the wagon, I REALLY fall off the wagon! I had 3 Haagen Dazs ice creams today after being really healthy for 2 weeks!

    Where are you from?

    I am totally with you! I'm 40 and need to lose 15-20 lbs. I was doing pretty well until Monday of Thanksgiving week, when I completely gave up because of the holiday 4 days later and have been eating everything in sight ever since. I feel completely out of control and am having a hard time motivating myself to head back to the gym. I have a beach vacation in December looming over my head, so I really need to get on this asap. Motivation buddies would be appreciated!
