    Hi! I’m UK based. Professional mum of 3 aged 9,7 and 4. I’m looking to loose about 10-12 pounds to be back at an ideal weight before my 40th and Caribbean holiday in March 2022!
    I work with high stress and have a weakness for an evening drink to relax which is often followed by sweet cravings!!
    Been a member for 5 years and dip in and out. Started today for honest accountability, support and encouragement! Lovely to meet you … what are your food/exercise goals?

    Hi Goldenxbeauty, I was just reading your other thread and was going to reply! You look amazing and healthy in your profile pic 😊 Be proud of all you are achieving. I recently looked into creating some ‘emergency healthy eating packs’ for myself and the children, they are there for days when the 1 hour turnaround from school to activity clubs would otherwise not be achievable. I add fruit and they are ready to go to eat in the car!! I pack 1 for myself also so I don’t get over hungry and binge! I use them about twice a month and is the healthiest version of grab and go food I could create! Perhaps have some on standby to create guilt free bad days!!

    39 year old mother of 2; they are older teens, so it’s no longer an ‘excuse’ for carrying extra comfort pounds. I want to feel healthier and more energetic :)

    I've been struggling too and seem to been successful on a food plan then I get distracted by one problem or another, and out the window goes my focus and goals. 65 years old and want to be a health weight to feel more positive. Would like to be as well as have some accountability support! Tessa

    I'm also a mom and working at this. I requested a bunch of you. My first 17 pounds are gone, but there is more progress to be made. My thyroid is a pest, but the weight comes off now when I put in the work.

    Hi new to the community :)

    I could definitely use support and accountability buddies. I’ve gone down and up and down and up over the last 2 years. Lost 30 lbs earlier this year then gained back 17 of it.
    I’d like to lose 100 lbs in the next year and keep it off!
    I know it’s baby steps. So here I am making my first step and post! :)
    I’m an emotional eater and struggle to do any exercise. Have depression.

    I’m 49 and I’m in early menopause also.

    Height 5 5”
    Starting today SW 244
    Goal W 146
    Currently 244

    Hoping to make new friends here on my journey!
    Also a drinking water accountability partner is needed too - because drinking enough h20 is so important! Thanks!
