in Introduce Yourself
Took a really good look at myself and I am so disgusted. Lost 60 lbs a few years ago and gained back every single one of them. I really hate to see my self in the mirror, reflections and worse of all in pictures. My daughter is getting married next year and I really want to take the weight off so I'm not hiding from the cameras! I could use some friends for support, please add me as a friend and we'll take this battle on together.

    We're all here to support each other so if you would like add me.

    I too have that bloody mirror showing me what I dont want to see but I also know the only way thats going to change is if we do it ourselves, nobody else. It's hard work but the reward is so worth it.
    Please dont feel hopeless, it takes a wake up call like this to put us on the right path. I know, that was my mirror not to long ago and its slowly getting better. :)

    I wish you luck knowing you can do it. :)

    Hi, I'm a newbie. I joined about 20 mins ago. You can do it. I can do it WE WILLLLLL DO IT.
    I've set my goal to loose 77lbs but I could do will loosing about another 50/60lbs on top of that. But I figure 1 goal at a time. I'm 40 soon and I figure it's time to kick some butt. I've lost 6 stone previously and yep you guessed it put it all back on. But I'm determined to DO IT this time and to KEEP IT OFF.

    There's a great quote "Don't dream it, Be it"

    If you need a buddy then please add me :)

    The BEST OF LUCK.

    You can do it!! I lost about 20lbs 2 years or so ago and then by last year I gained it ALL back (plus a little more) as of now I've lost 30lbs (so 10 lbs more than I did a few years ago). I know how depressing it was to gain it all back and I am definitely motivated not to get there again (barring if I get pregnant of course, lol)

    Good luck! Having people to be accountable to, even unknown people online, can be a big help!
