I started the year with a goal to lose 40-50 pounds, and this morning, I am at -26.

HUZZAH!

Amazing work. I've been on the same kind of path this year. Down -29 with another 15 to go. It's hard and needs to maintained almost every day. Changing those eating and exercise habits is really tough. You're doing great.

Absolutely.

I took off 140 five years ago but gained half of it back, so I got back on the wagon this year. I've learned that losing weight in one's 30's is a very different game than losing in one's 40's, but thankfully it's coming off and I don't eat like I did back then. Should be easier to maintain now.

I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
