  • Hay everyone! I've been a member since 2012, but more off than on. I'm 41 and on my journey to lose 90 lb. It seems as if it will take forever. I know that I can do it, I lost 50lbs a couple of years ago, but then moved to a new town and gained it all back and then some. I am ready to do this again, for good this time. I…
  • I am right there with you. I started my weight loss journey one year ago with a goal of losing 90lb. I was walking every night for 1 hour, sometimes more. I was doing about 5 miles a day. I lost 50 lbs. I was so proud of myself.Then we moved 3 hours away to a new town. I don't go out walking by myself around here for…

  • I am from Northern Maine..very North..Lived in Colorado Springs for awhile, but came back to my roots
  • My diary is for my eyes only. I feel that what I eat is a very personal decision. I also don't feel the need to see what anyone else eats. What works for others probably won't work for me.and vise versa .since we are all different. If I want advice about my eating habits I will ask my doctor. Sometimes I forget to log my…
  • My husband is retired Army Instructor so he has me in a boot camp..lol I like it ..It gives me accountability and he knows what he is doing! Today I did a cardio bootcamp for 15 minutes which included a lot of squats and jumping and and so on..then we worked on leg lifts and crunches..I am feeling it...this afternoon I did…
  • 5lbs in the first month is not too ambitious. I think its about right. Motivation is key. You can sit and think about exercising and it will get you nowhere. OR you can stop thinking of it as exercise and thinking of doing something fun! Zumba is dancing..Think of it as a game..You are going to "play" Zumba for 15-30 min…
  • You can do this! Do not give up! You have come this far and you are at the home stretch..Its 9 lbs...you can do it!
  • You do not want those..they are nasty....lol I agree with the water comment..Drink up and Fill up!
  • I agree with everyone here. There is nothing I can say that someone else didn't already say..I had Mcdonald's chicken nuggets yesterday and I felt guilty....FOR A MINUTE! You reached your goal weight..that is awesome..I think it is healthier to give in once in a great while. Had you not had that sandwich your craving may…
  • Thank you everyone for the excellent advice! I am on my feet all day at work moving around back and forth, so I am lightly active all day. I just love the energy that exercising gives me..and I am not a patient person and I want results..lol As I am sure we all do..I don't want to hurt myself so I am going to take it…
  • I got rid of mine just for that reason. It was horrible! My husband had the same problem. I walk and do other activity..
  • :happy: Congratulations! That is wonderful! Keep up the awesome work!
  • Welcome Back! I just started up again yesterday and I am also in need of encouragement and motivation. I am happy to help you along the way. We all need support during this time and I think having challenges is a fun way to go about the task before us. make small goals. Don't look at it like you need to lose 50lb, 100lb…
  • Hello! Welcome:) My name is Bren, I am 34 from Maine. I am new here as well. I have only been here for 1 week. We have similar goals:) I also want to get down to a size 10 by july. I am a size 18 right now but I was a size 24 at my highest weight. I found that making small changes at first helps a lot. I started drinking…
  • Hello! I am also looking for friends. I have also been here for almost a week, BUT the day after I joined I got a stomach flu and a cold. So, this week has been very laid back for me. I am hoping by next week I can get on track and get started. I have yet to buy scales for my house because I hate looking at the number. I…
  • Hello! I am new to this site. I just joined a few minutes ago. It was recommended by a friend. My name is Bren and I have about 75 lb to lose. I lost a bunch of weight last summer, but of course winter showed up and I gained some of it back. I can lose weight, but I have a hard time keeping it off. I am ready to do this…
