I am currently near the Derita/North Lake area. Native of Charlotte, raised on the east side where I still work. I have my eyes on the outskirts now to get away from these hiked up taxes in Meck. Co. Outside of that I am stoked to have a group of my QC peeps supporting one another in our journey to health. We can give one…

I am here with you :bigsmile: Native Charlottean. born & raised!

Hey Y'all - native Charlottean here! love to know my peeps are on here for support and ideas. has anyone tried to year round Farmer's market in Southend? I want to check it out.

I am in Charlotte, but also near the edge about 10 minutes from Concord Mills. Where do you guys workout?

Hey Y'all!!! love my NC'ers :flowerforyou: I am a native Charlottean. I love our Greenways especially in the spring and fall. Those are the most beautiful seasons in NC no matter what part you live in. We have great places for bike trails too which i love to do.

I designate my lunch at work to walking. After i did it a few days it sunk in and now when i don't walk on my lunch I feel like something's missing and it's on my mind. Now it's like my me time at work. No one to think about, questions to answer, systems crashing, just me and the fresh air and it's all mine.

me too, just having someone who is going through the same thing telling you, "come on sister!" really seems like it will help. Having accountability can put a fire under you when you don't have the spark for yourself. Let's do this

me too girl! i am around 220 ish and feel so motivated after seeing these pics and everyone's positive vibes. This is exactly what i needed. Thanks you guys!!!!

This is so awesome! Did you start jogging before you lost any weight? I ask b/c i worry about being heavy and hurting m knees. I used to run, but that was over 10 years ago.

WOW! you go girl! how long did it take you and do you have any tips on staying motivated?

Sounds like it's decision time.

Well this week went nothing as planned. I got almost no appointed exercise in. My steps per day were totally inconsistent...970 one day, 11784 on another. I realized by midweek i was guessing portions again (bad habit) which we all know where tbat goes, lol. I gIned for sure, but I have learned this week to stay the course…

Hang in there. I know I've probably got some WTH moments coming too. We're in this together. Not just a new year, new you challenge, but also new WEEK, new you each week.

17.5 miles!! That's awesome

whoo- hoo!! 2 for 2 and not from Mickey Ds!! haa haa. down 2 lbs in 2 weeks. 10 miles logged, although my pedometer was dead most of the week. I got me a new battery and started kicking it. I have been swimming to, but still trying to get the miles straight. iI found a good conversion chart, but after the fact. I have to…

Slow to get mileage in. Can't find a battery for my pedometer- mission for tmrw. Then I will make up some miles. Where are you guys finding the mileage ticker? I want one.

Happy one-week!

Hey and welcome! Enter your food. It's the biggest piece. I Learn so much by logging daily- I thought I ate within my means by guessing, but it was an eye-opener. At first I didn't get too wrapped up in the calories as much as needing to see what I was truly was consuming. Good luck and stick with it.

hummus lettuce wrap...LOVE!!

Hey and welcome. I am recommiting and also have an auto immune disease (RA). I need to lose about 68 lbs. Good luck to ya!

This is perfect to kick start my new re-commitment! Please accept my request so that I can participate.

Well hey there & Thx for the honesty. I myself am a semi-current user ready to embrace the potential of the site. Also, I am a former smoker I don't have an exact stop date b/c I went back and forth for a while. I slipped occasionally, but not since August. It's been over 2 years since I was a full timer and have packed on…
