Hello everyone! My name is Niki, and I’m in the Washington DC area. I just joined the group today and I’m so excited to be part of a community!
I am 5’4’’ and I’m 188.5 lbs, and it’s the heaviest I have ever been. My biggest goals are:
-to get down to about 125 - 135 lbs
-to build a consistent routine for healthy eating and working out
-to strengthen my muscles and build endurance
-to make a lifestyle change for choosing healthy foods and limiting junk food
I had been consistently about about 170 lbs for about 5 years, but maybe due to getting into my 30s and quarantine this year, I gained almost 15 lbs since the beginning of the year. My biggest weaknesses are fried foods, ice-cream, and chocolate based sweets
Although I'm not planning to exclusively give up any foods (as it causes me to binge), I'm learning to listen to what my body needs both in terms of nutrition and movement.
Last week when I hit the 190s, I made a decision to take my health seriously and work toward a healthy lifestyle! I’m so excited to get to know everyone and support each other through this journey!9 -
Hi everyone!
Just joining today. I had lost 35 pounds during quarantine and I was so proud of myself. I’ve slowly gained back 15 of those, because my emotions got the best of me. I want to be proud of myself again. I’m 27 and a mother of one sweet boy.

Welcome to our new members! As mentioned in other posts, this group is a place to share your goals, plans, victories, questions, tips, issues...whatever and however you wish to make the most of it. Since my goal is to do a daily check-in for accountability, I will start a thread every morning as a place for everyone to report their plans and/or results of the day. I'd love to see everyone report in as often as possible to keep yourself honest and to let the group know how you're doing. It's all about showing up!5

Hello Everyone!
My name is Dia and I just joined today. This seems like a great group to be a part of. I'm 4'11 so all this extra weight is really taking a toll on me. I want to get my health in order, stick to a goal and feel good accomplishing it and of course to look great in my clothes. I live in the south so everything is a comfort food but my biggest problem was not eating all day and then snacking at night after dinner. My best friends at the time were Dr. Pepper, Moutain Dew and Root Beer.
I realized I had to change my mindset and make healthier lifestyle choices that I could stick with. I also had to stop comparing myself to others because this is my journey. I have cut out sodas and increased my water intake and I actually eat 3 meals a day and sometimes a snack if I need it.
