Hi from California

Hello, my name is Lynn and I currently live in California. I love to read, travel and swim. I joined this forum to continue to motivate myself, to get tips on how to lead a healthy life and the best way to lose weight and keep it off. I have a goal to lose 40 pounds by July of this year. I hope it is a realistic goal
 
Hello! and welcome.
40 lbs in 3 months is alot, regardless of where you are starting.

What's happening in July?

Start a Journal in the journal section and let's do this thing together. We can be accountable daily, and grow together.

Again, welcome to the board.

Sweat Daily!

I know it does seem like a lot but i thought I should aim high. how would I benefit from starting a journal? Not that I object to it or wouldn't i just want to know your opinion of the benefits of starting a journal.

I need to lose the 40 pounds for health reasons but the reason why I want to lose the weight by July is because my friends and I are going to Miami and I want to look good in a bathing suit. :)
 
I use the journal as a way to check in daily, report my activity, and let you all know what I am, or am not doing.

It helps me. Kinda like now I know you are going to go look at my journal at some point, and my activity is not where I want it to be.

of course I just started it yesterday :) This time around.
A few years ago I set a goal of doing Ironman. During that time I kept a journal and my friends on here could see what I was doing, or not doing, and they could give me advice, or encouragement.

It's just a way of "not being alone" in the quest for a better you, and me.

I guess it's more of an activity log, than a traditional journal. But it is also a good place to vent and be heard.
