NeedToLose30
New member
Hi everyone, I am new to this forum and this is my first post! I found this forum through google in hopes of finding a supportive and motivational group to help keep me on track with my weight loss goals. I am hoping to lose 30 pounds, but more importantly I am hoping to get fit and healthy. My major challenges are:
1. Food - This one is difficult, I am a snacker. I am not a fan of veggies or nuts. this equals a lot of excess calories.
2. Exercise - Fitting in exercise can be challenging. So far I am managing to fit it in most days, but I would like to do it everyday! Kids and husband are hard to work around sometimes though.
3. Sleep - I know that sleep is also important, and I know I am not getting enough. With work and then time with the kids in the evening, I feel my real "me" time is when they have all gone to bed, and this results in me staying up later.
In the past 4 weeks I have tried 2 different free challenge groups I found on Facebook, both of which were 7 days and ended in a sales pitch. What I did like about them was the accountability, I hope that this forum can help replace some of that since I wasn't going to pay to have those continue for 90 days.....and buy shakes....I can't afford that kind of thing. My weight loss should be free!
Anyways thanks for reading, I hope to post often and get on with my journey to a healthier, fitter me!
