Hi guys, ive been in this boat before, i was 255lbs and got down to 162lbs. Life went on and i didnt maintain i am back at 244lbs i have set a goal for now of 199lbs. Ive been bouncing back and for between 233-250lbs for the past two years. Im wanting to lose weight before my birthday in September. I keep telling myself i wanna do that for the past two years and havent even tried.
I am just getting tired of sitting around, hiding myself and being away from people because i am not comfortable being around anyone any more.
In time i wanna be able to get back to 160lbs. I am 24, and 5'7. I look forward to meeting some of u! And getting advice as i am rusty to all of this again and forgot a few things. I just wanna know where i should start. Thanks have a good day! - K.🙂

  • Hi! Feel free to add me as well! 🙂 I want to lose about 50 pounds. I’m 27 years old. Weigh about 165 pounds. I lost weight a few years back but gained it all back. I’m just ready for a change! My boyfriend wants to take me out for the weekend at the end of July and I would love to lose some weight before then so I can buy a nice outfit!!! I would love some support and people to help motivate me as I would do to you! ❤️❤️🙂🙂

    Hi and I would love to help you with as much support as I can offer. I am in the same boat with you on the yo yo dieting and weight gain. It is so hard to eat health all the time. Good luck and remember you're not alone.

    Add me to your friends list. I have been doing this for 11 days now and I am determined to lose 20 pounds by October for my cruise and my birthday. My weight was 155lbs but now I am 175. I have to do something now before I get any bigger. I have been watching my calorie intake and if I go over what my calories are for the day , I make myself exercise to offset the calories. It is hard when you are doing it by yourself and my husband could lose a few pounds but doesn't have any desire to. I can't tell myself how much I have gained until I step on the scale or look at a picture someone else took. That's when I say to myself " I hate the way I look". I hope we can bounce ideas and thoughts of our daily issues as it comes to losing weight. I know it is hard especially since I am getting older all the time.
