I tried doing my fitness pal a year ago and I just didn't have motivation for some reason. This year I actually feel motivated. I would love to have some friends to provide support for me and I will provide in return! I am 250 pounds and 26 years old. Weight is hard for me to lose due to multiple reasons my doctor can't figure out. However, I am going to try!

    Yeah, me too! This is my 2nd go round. I missed one day of log-in and it totally threw me off track. No better time than now to get started once again. Glad you are back!

    Feel free to add me. I am 26 and have been to the doctors about my weight many times. Its gone from maybe depression, to maybe thyroid, to, u need to eat differently and exercise....well, I was heavy younger and thinned out all on my own...and then recently...in about 4 years I just gained. Yes...I believe drinking had much to do with it...especially when I was drinking everyday...but since I stopped...which was awhile ago...IM STILL GAINING!!! Anyways...Im always looking for more friends for support. I do still eat what I want....but in moderation. So far I have lost 9 lbs. Good luck!
