Introduction
First things first, I'd like to introduce myself briefly and say a bit about why I started this group. My name is Chandal and I've been on my weight loss journey since January. I have a goal of losing 100 pounds by the end of this year and so far I've lost 75, so I have a few more than 20 to lose. I have a 5 year old, a…

Goals - Non Scale?
Do you have any non scale goals you'd like to achieve? Mine is A pull up! I'm not shooting too high! Just one would be great! I'd like to achieve it by the end of the year but it may take longer. I've never in my life been able to accomplish this task and it has been a goal of mine all year.

Healthy Recipe of the Week!
To get ourselves started, here is a healthy but DELICIOUS dinner recipe that I tested out just last week! Yogurt Fettuccine Alfredo! Looking to save on carbs? Use spaghetti squash instead, like I did! I also added some thinly sliced chicken breast that I had previously cooked for the week. It was just the indulgence I was…

Are you a morning workout person?
I strive to be that person that can wake up at 5 am every day and get their workout completed. It would fit my schedule MUCH better! But I am not that person. Probably the furthest thing from that person really. I sleep until I've only got 15 minutes left to get ready before I have to bolt out of the house. I found an…

50lbs down, halfway there! 5'9", 265lbs to start. Pics!
I've been working hard since January of this year to better myself and it's definitely paying off! I was at my heaviest for almost a year, holding at a steady 265lbs. I was miserable. I didn't like looking at myself, I hated getting dressed, my knees were always hurting. Diabetes runs bad in my family, as well…

Lifting - Where to start?
I've been working out at least 4 times a week but it's been mostly cardio with a day or two of just at home body weight work. While it's gotten me results (41lbs!), I want to make sure I'm keeping everything as tight as possible during the next phase of my weight loss. I go to the gym and I watch people lift but I haven't…

I try to log every day and so far in the past two weeks I've had a small success! I'd like more friends who are also dedicated to…
