I’m 27 and I have a lot of weight to lose! Roughly 100 lbs. I’ve done it before (and I looked pretty darn good in my opinion) and then a ton of Life smacked me in the face and all my hard work was undone.

But I did it once so I’m pretty confident I can do it again. And I would like some new friends! I think my circle of friends last time made a massive difference in my success and I like to think I also helped them too.

Anyone can add me, I keep my diary open for the most part, and i post a lot on my personal feed or in other people’s posts.

    Hey! Is it OK if I add you?
    I am 26 and I need to lose 100+pounds... It will be a very slow process though.
    My feed is still in Dutch, but I will fix that. (not that there's currently a lot to read... But you know... I will make sure everyone understands it)

    G'morning! I definitely get where you're coming from.. I lost 70 lbs several years ago, but put it all back on b/c of hours & stress associated w/a business I opened (80 hour weeks driving limos). Started again last year, and managed to drop about 40 before injuring my shoulder, so 6 months recovery from surgery put me right back again. Trying to start fresh again.. I had a similar experience to yours with a few friends on here, but they're less present this go round.. I could definitely use a few friends to help keep me on track and motivated, & I'm more than happy to do the same!

    Feel free to add me! I have one friend in total, so I could always use some support. :D I'm in the exact same boat that you are where I lost all the weight once and put it all back on because life is a not-very-nice-lady.

    I've been using the MyFitnessPal app since I dropped Weight Watchers. I like this app better but I miss the support I had in Weight Watchers. Feel free to add me. I could use the inspiration. Thanks.

    I've been on here for a while now. I started at close to 250 and got down to 185 before suffering a setback two years ago that I just finally was able to have repaired. I got back up to 230 but since my surgery I'm hovering around 220 (ish).
    I am more than happy to be anybodies support here, I'm an open book and will share anything. After all what good is my life lessons if I can't share the knowledge that I have gained from it.
    My profile should be open for you to read and you can decide if I'm a fit for you.
    Either way I wish you all great success.
    V/r,
    DW.
