Hey everyone! I’m in search of some friends whom would like to challenge each other and motivate us together to shred some pounds. What a better time now that we are hopefully trying to stay home. I have a hard time staying motivated and I’m assuming must of us do as well. I have workout and lost weight but after a month or so I just get sick & tired of not seen the results I want. I would really enjoy some friends to keep our motivation moving on.

My current weight is 170.6 (lowest in idk how many years) 4/25/2020

My Goal is 150 (if not much to ask with a 6pack lol) yeah I know maybe I’m daydreaming but it doesn’t hurt.

I will try to post some picture here & there.

    Hi, I’m also looking for some motivation. I’m trying to stay fit during this pandemic. I’m currently in the middle of a 28 day summer sculpt workout. Let me know if you’re still interested in starting a challenge. I would be down to start one or just find ways to hold each other accountable!

    I’m looking for motivation too! I joined DietBet and it was really helping but somehow over Easter my weight crept back up! This morning I was 139lbs and I need to lose another 2.5 lbs by Wednesday/Thursday or I lose $50...
    Ultimate goal is 130lbs.

    I went for an hour walk around a lake. Feel great. Keeping up with 1200 calories a day avoiding sugar which is my trigger food. 😊

    Maybe we could all contribute on things to make a challenge that works? adding a few ideas that have worked for you in the Past?
    I myself struggle with sweets, sodas and such, I think drinking half my weight in oz would be a start with me, avoiding soda and candy for a month.

    Wendy, I also struggle with sugar. I decided no to have any sugar until I lose 15 lbs.

    My biggest challenge is free for all evening snacking. When we went shopping last weekend, i refused to buy anything but popcorn. Kids were not happy but have since forgave me...lol

    I have only had popcorn 1 night last week.

    It probably helps that I'm having gut issues....😉

    Oh no!! Hope you are ok fourathomej?! Sounds terrible. Do you need surgery?

    I made my DietBet! I weighed in at 61.45kg / 135.6lbs this am.
