Hi All, I found that in the past I have been successful with weight loss when I had a partner to go to the gym with, keeps tabs on each other, etc. I've recently moved to a new city and don't know anyone. So...am hoping I can make friends here!
A little about me, I'm 5'8 and about 5 years ago I weighed about 225. With healthy eating, proper portions and regular workouts I was able to get down to 169. Then the trouble started. I moved away from a friend who was my weight loss partner, I finished school and started in the working world and I didn't have the support or access to a gym I needed. The weight has been creeping back on ever since. Last year I moved in with my bf who can eat whatever he wants and look great (grr...). So...I weight myself and I am officially at 200 pounds....again. My goal is 155.
I thought, I can either cry and down a tub of ice cream or I can do something about this. I'm sick of feeling fat, sick of criticizing myself, sick of avoiding pictures, sick of hiding! Enough is enough.
So...with all that said I'm just looking for support, encouragement, etc and i'm happy to provide the same
