Optimistic and motivated
 

Hi everyone! Found this great site and wanted to offer support to others as well as get support on my weight loss journey. Let the pain, fun, and reward begin.

Welcome! I started this week too and I've already learned so much by browsing through some of the posts here :)

Thanks
 

Yeah there is so much good info here. I was and am aware about some things I have read but its hard working alone and without a good support system. I would really like a workout buddy but am prepared to solo it.

Yay!
 

I love how you said fun, I love working out I think it is great fun. You just got to find something that you enjoy and then you won't even need a workout buddy(:

Thanks Liliann now more than ever I feel I can do it. My weight has yo-yoed for years. Just trying to take any negative things in life and use it as motivation for my success and maintaining a healthy weight.

Yeah I can agree that finding an enjoyable activity is key but I really like the idea of a buddy. Ironically basketball was my life in high school. Kind of feel out of love with it. Now refocusing my attention on other activities. I have been coming of with some ideas as to have variations in my workout.
