New to the group!

What’s up ladies! I thought I posted in here yesterday but can’t find my post!

I’m new here.

I need to get rid of 90 lbs.

Currently sitting at 240
Wanting to be 150ish

My goals:

Giving myself this fresh start.
Just signed a new 1 year lease 2 weeks ago. So this is the year.

Daily movement. Even if it’s just a walk. But at lease 30 mins.

I’m working my way up to burning 1000 calories a day. Currently keeping a steady pace of around 375 a day. I know it’s a big challenge but my baby goals will get me there.

I have type 2 diabetes and have been in denial for years now.
Finally taking steps to mitigate that.

I have my before photos and will check in daily. Also posting my weigh ins on Mondays. That’s the goal anywAy. Lol

I also never used this app or community but I’m off of all social media and I still want a little fitness community to keep me motivated so I’m still trying to figure this app out.

Happy to be here with you ladies.

    Hello!

    Glad you're starting your journey! My name is Lindsay. I'm on my way to losing..as of right now, about 70 lbs. I currently weigh 259 and my current goal weight is 190.

    Hi Lindsay and Tiffany! I’m Diana. I am in the middle of my weight loss journey almost 40 lbs down and not quite sure when I’ll be done, probable another 20 but honestly I don’t know what my body will look like at any weight below where I am now so I just have to wait and see. Looking to support others and stay motivated along the way. 🙌🏻

    How was everyone’s day today? I had a great day sticking to my food plan. I went running in the evening just around sunset but it was still so hot and humid I felt pretty tired most of the time. But I did it! That’s what counts. 💪🏻 Hope everyone else feels proud of their day too 😌
