in Introduce Yourself
Hi. I'm a newbie. My husband was suddenly ill 2 months after we got married in Jan 21 and he died in Jan 22. In that year (and a couple months), I managed to gain 20 pounds. I was already 20 pounds overweight, so now I need to lose 40. Time to kick some butt!!!! Who's with me? Friends make it a lot easier! One day at a time, folks!

    My condolences. That must be so hard.

    You can do this. Commit to tracking everything, the good, the bad and the ugly. If you slip up, forgive yourself and do better the next time.

    Good luck!

    Hi, I’m really sorry for your loss and I hope you are doing ok. You got this!!

    I am trying to log/weigh in everyday, I had made some progress in 2020 but after a death in the family I gained it all back. Right now I have ~40lb to lose and I want to get more active, feel free to add me if you want!
