edited October 2024 in Introduce Yourself
I know it doesn't seem like a lot to some but I just need to loose about 40 pounds to get back to my pre-kids weight of around 152. I lost it a few years ago but managed to gain it all back and now i can only fit ONE pair of pants. I know its easier to loose weight when you're dieting with someone else so does anyone out there in my same situation or similar want to diet with me? Thanks!

ps- I'm from California and a mom of 2 teenagers

    Just joined 10 minutes ago. I need ~~ well, would LIKE ~~ to lose about 75lbs but 40 would make me ecstatic. Do we keep this thread going or start a new one every day? How does "Team Encouragement" work?

    Yes, I would like to join you. I wonder if we can send out food to each other through this website? I want to lose 100 lbs, but 40 would be a great start. I am a single 66 year old lady. I have 3 cats and lots of friends, and I work at a call center so I sit at a computer 8 hours a day, from 3 pm- 11:30 pm. I was going to the Y and swimming everyday, then my knee started hurting with arthritis and today I got a shot in my knee to relieve the pain. I have to work tomorrow, thanksgiving, but I already made my food plan, because we are having a feast at work. I am bringing some carrots with a little brown sugar and orange juice glaze. I plan to eat a cut of my carrots, about 6 oz of turkey, and 1 piece of pumpkin pie at work. The Y is closed tomorrow, so I promise you I will walk up and down my block once, and do 16 pushups, and 20 crunches. I guess that is a good start for Thanksgiving Day. I hope you have a great day and look for ward to hearing from you. Your picture is very nice. Judy Schaljo
