Hello Everyone! I'm ready to meet new friends!

Hey Guys and Gals!

I am pretty new to the site and would love to make some new friends and a support system.
I have been using the mobile app for about a month and am down 7lbs from my starting weight of 249. My goal is to lose 74lbs in a year. I'm about 6ft tall so I am hoping to end up rocking a pretty hot bod for my next birthday :)
I'll be honest, I have trouble staying on track and pretty much lack any ambition to work out.
I work as an event designer for a catering company so my job keeps me pretty active but I am also always around delicious food! I guess that it is just one of those challenges that life throws at you.
So, anyway... I guess that's all I had to say.
Talk to you soon :)

    Hey! This site is pretty great, really helps. It took me years to get motivated to exercise but the more you do it the more you wanna do it! Ask away if you have any questions.

    Hi there been using this site for some months now & I find it very helpful. First time I've actually read back my food diary & been totally honest about it (lol). It seems to work, although I try not to be too hard on myself. I'm a mom of 3, grandmother of 4, & 54 yrs. young. I'm looking for a support group too. Let me know .
