just joining, coming over from livestrong. i loved the community feature on the mobile app, but i felt uncomfortable with the wide array of people (losing, gaining, eating disorders, body builders). i like diversity, but when i posted about losing a large amount of weight, there was only one other person who responded :( i'm looking for friends so we can cheer each other on!

i'm 32 and live in new york. currently i'm a body piercer and i'm in school for community health and services (social work). i'll get my associate's this july and am continuing on to my bachelor's. i love cats, hate capital letters, and am a carbaholic.

    Welcome! I just joined this week but I am already loving this site. I work as an elementary school teacher so I am off for the summer and hoping to kick so major fat. :smile:

    I have a goal to loose 50 pounds by December. A few years ago I lost 80 pounds in a year, but have gained back 30 of that, so I am hoping 50 in half a year is doable. I would love to loose 100 (it would take me to my ideal weight) but I'll be happy losing 50.

    Friend me if you like.

    For those ladies on here, feel free to check out my profile and see if you would like to add me. I started with this site and fitbit and love them both. I must say tho, when I have health questions or fitness equipment questions, I am usually on livestrong for research. :o)
