Looking for friends with common goals
I've been on here for about 7 days and I have already found so many great people and answers!

It's sometimes hard to stay positive every single day,…

I just want to introduce myself, make some friends and help motivate each other. I think this site is such a great idea! I have a big weight loss goal in the grand scheme of things, but I have small, 5 weight loss goals to slowly get there. I have been working out faithfully and eating right for five weeks. I haven't lost…
