  • Hi, I've just joined this group as I agree with you that procrastinators can be perfectionists who have a do or nothing attitude. It just gets in the way. I'm willing to lend support to my fellow procrastinators when I'm not procrastinating and hope to lean on you dear procrastinating group members when I lose my way,…

  • Hi all, type 2 diabetes runs in my family but I didn't help things by also putting on weight with each child I had (I have 3 gorgeous children - 13 yo girl, 16 yo girl and 18 yo boy).

  • Congrats! Each success like this should be celebrated & you have every right to be proud. When I moved from obese to overweight I thought all my Christmases had come at once. Keep up the good work.

  • I've done tai chi in the past and if instructed and done properly it is quite a workout. You'll use muscles you didn't know you had and it's a challenge to control your movement to make sure that you're fluid and in tempo. It works out your mind and body. Good luck with it.

  • Hey rock…I too am scared which really baffles me! I know I want and need to lose weight for oh so many, many reasons but seem to sabotage myself when I succeed in losing just a bit. 2 steps forward, 1 step back. Just focus on the WHY you're wanting to do this. I think with a little bit of support, you & I can help each…

  • We have a cavoodle, Jett & he keeps me motivated to take him on walks for at least 4-6 kms x 5 days per week. Without him, I'd be stuffed!

  • Hi all, I've been using this app for a while now and found it terrific at first. As time's gone by my motivation has fluctuated and really believe I need help to keep on track. I think people in the same situation, like you out there, are the ones I can rely on - I hope so, anyway. Please feel free to prod and poke me when…
