    Hi everyone. I'm back. Former 1000 day streak and member of the 100 pound club. I struggle with motivation and sticking to diets. So hoping being back will help.

    The reason why I want to lose weight is not only for the health benefits and to help my liver condition, but because I've signed up to my first ever half marathon, feel free to add me on here any help and support is much appreciated

    Currently a few days into a 60 day shred. Aiming to lose as much weight as possible in my experiement. Wish me luck

    Good luck! Actually, scratch that. It's not luck. Revised to say, "Make yourself successful." It's a simple equation, but it's not easy. We're all here with you. WE can do it! We all fall off the rails sometime. My last couple weeks is a great example. Pick up, dust off, keep moving in the general direction we're traveling.

    Glad you came back to join us again!

    Hello.
    Didnt realise there was a community here.
    If you want to add me you can. I'm 45 and started using the app after my wife was using it for some time for her fitness regime.
    Started really training last december. Mostly strength training to prevent further back issues whilst becoming stronger overall and getting rid of some fat in the process.

    Happy Sunday everyone!
    Slumber party was fun. My team won rosé pong. We had yummy BBQ, my son was happy for all the attention from the ladies. He tucked his favourite in on the couch and gave her a teddy to snuggle. It's all good

    Today my team is skating so I will skate too. They all know my shoulder is pretty bad and I'm basically not supposed to do the team skating. But hey gotta support them right?

    Always can use friends for motivation. I'm about 3 months from turning 40. It's crunch time! If you're willing to give me the kick in the *kitten* I need sometimes, feel free to add me.

    Hi everyone!! I’m Lee
    SW 205
    GW 135
    I’m fighting what feels like an uphill, defeating battle to get back to 135lbs!
    I’m trying everything to keep motivated because I’m realizing at my age & low thyroid, the scale does not move at the pace it used to anymore!

    I’m sure we’re all similarly fighting the same battle, I just needed to finally verbalize it... THANKS for being my space!
