    Me too! I’m starting again for what feels like the 1000th time.

    Ive just got my motivation back after trying on and off for several years. with 50 looming in a few years I decided I needed to embrace a complete change to my eating habits. It’s hard and no one else at home wants to do it with me.

    I started joining some Challenge teams last spring; we did a spring challenge, then a short between spring and summer one, and we're about 2 weeks away from finishing up the summer challenge. I don't recall how I originally found the teams, but they are VERY competitive. If you think this is something that would interest you, I can ask some of the leaders about how you can join a team for the upcoming Fall challenge (I know they will provide a link here soon to find the group easily); just be warned, as I said, they are VERY competitive, so you will be required to log on every day to work on some type of requests, but you will also meet people who will encourage you and assist with helping you figure out what you need to do in particular for your own needs. You have to put in the work to do an actual lifestyle change if you want to be successful. Editing to add, I have lost close to 10 lbs over this period of time; it's seems like not a lot, but I'm eating healthier and working out more and I'm also up there in age, so that makes a difference as well.

    Hi! I am restarting today....I looked at the scale this morning and cringed. I purchased the premium as an incentive since I can't afford to waste the money. Feel free to add me....let's do this together!
