edited December 2024 in Introduce Yourself
My name is Erica, I'm 5'2 and started at 253 lbs. Currently at 247lbs, my first goal is to get down to around 160lbs. Anyone need a friend? I can be supportive I promise! I'm not "dieting" persay, just eating A LOT healthier than I have in the past. Dieting is a horrible word. I'm making changes that flow into my life as is, that way I stick to it. I'm 23 yrs old, with no kids, so yes I do go out, I drink on the weekends, and I may have the occasional 3am breakfast at waffle house. Life happens! But I believe that I can make healthy decisions without giving up my social life like I've tried to do in the past. And because I'm going from eating a fast food meal consisting of 1000+ calories AT LEAST once a day to salads and smoothies, I feel I'm going to make some progress. Would love to have some friends to keep in touch with and help support! Please consider adding me :)

    Hi! I'm 5'6" and starting at 202.2lbs. My goal is 135.0lbs. I need a buddy! :-)

    I'm also 23, no kids, just graduated from school and completely understand that life happens. I'm trying to make healthy lifestyle changes and not necessarily diet. I found that I could have some success on diets but I gained it all back when I went off of it. I've changed my exercise habits but my nutrition still needs some work. Having some friends to help support would be awesome!
