Hi! I'll help you anyway I can.

Hello, After lots of ups and downs, I'm back on the bandwagon and trying to find a healthy lifestyle so my weight doesn't yo-yo. A few years ago, I managed to lose 20 lbs and with lots of working out, fit into a size 8 (the smallest I've ever been)! Over the years, my weight has come back on and then some! Let's see...29 lbs of weight gain. I feel so down about it. I feel quite disgusted with myself and I've been trying to find my motivation to get on track. It seems like everytime I make some progress, I step backwards with binge eating for some silly reason. I remember how great it was to go to a store and look good in anything I picked up and I want to get back to that. It is so much more fulfilling than food. Plus, I'm approaching 30 and want to make sure I get myself on track before it is even harder. I want to enjoy the last couple of years in my 20s. I just moved to a new city and don't know anyone so I'm hoping that I can find myself a place amongst all of you wonderful and supportive people. It is so exciting to see everyone's tickers and the progress they're making. That's already motivation. I can't wait to see my ticker progress. So, if anyone's interested I'd love to be their buddy and share in the ups, down, ins, and outs of weight loss.

Hi Spring, I'm in the same exact boat as you!! Lost a bunch of weight and was at an awesome size a couple of years ago, but somehow 20-25 pounds managed to find their way back! I'd love to be your buddy so we can help each other along the way. I am LOVING this site, I'm probably going overboard with posting and replying to people's journals, but I find it so motivating to read about what other people are going to, hear about their tips, and provide feedback and encouragement. This is great!

Hi Spring. I am trying to start a support group on here. Just to have fun you know, and also to help. I know everyone needs encouragement sometimes. If you want to check it out you can look at my thread. Just go to the Buddy up forum and look for the post "Looking for female support team" I have gained and lost alot of weight too and this last time that I started dieting I decided I really needed to do something about this. I am at 150 pounds the most I have ever been. I started gaining weight when I got pregnant with my first daughter and never lost it all and then 1 1/2 years later I got pregnant again and still haven't lost all the weight from either one. I was in a size 0-3 before I got pregnant and around 105-110. So anyways, If you want to join the group you are more than welcome to as is everyone else. Hope to see you around.
