I have to lose 50 pounds. I am looking for supportive people!

In 2016 I lost 35 pounds using this app and Fitbit. In 2017 I had a death in the family and gained all the weight back and more. I am again on my journey to lose weight and I am looking for people to share the journey with.

    20lbs to go after dropping 80 a couple of years ago. Feel free to add me:)
  • I'm new and haven't figured out how to add anyone yet, but feel free to add me! I've got 100 lbs to lose in the next year and a half and would love to encourage and be encouraged by as many people as possible in this process!
    You've got this!

    Hi, new friend I have 4 kids under 7 and over the years have put on weight with each pregnancy. Work from home and struggling to do exercise. This year I have decided no more excuses. I am trying everyday to walk on the treadmill for 30 mins. Feel free to add me. Need to lose 39 kilos
    We can do it 🙂

    I lost 40 on my own then got laid off and gained it back. I’m doing low carbs low sugar and it’s coming off really slow this time. I’m kind of frustrated because I am looking to have a tummy tuck this spring but I need to be near my target weight which is about 20-30 lbs lighter. I’ve lost about 12 lbs since starting in December 2018. Looking for friends with similar interests to share recipes and exercise tips. Nobody around me is truly dedicated to this lifestyle so I feel alone sometimes

    You can add me if you like. I've gained quite a bit of weight since I stopped due to stress issues. Now that I've got my motivation back, I'm looking motivational people too :smile:

    Hello everyone! I too have 45lbs to drop. I'm great at being supportive of others, but not always so supportive or encouraging of my own self.
    Would love to walk through this journey with you ladies as well.
    Have a great Friday to all of you! And best of luck on your journeys! <3

    Has anyone ever heard of intermittent fasting? Does it work?

    I’ve lost just over 57 pounds with the help of this app and community in the last 13 months. I still have 13 pounds to go; I’m in this for the long haul! I don’t profess to be an expert at this by any means, but feel free to add me if any of you want some “been there, done that” support.

    I'm about 52 from target. I'd been within 5 of it last summer but got lazy and careless.
