I found a Fort Wayne topic but most of the posts are over a year old. SO... I am looking to see if there is anyone in the Fort Wayne area (or anywhere) who has still not reached their goal AND would like some encouragement and support. I am a 28 y/o mother of two! I started JC 3 weeks ago and I have 8.8 lbs behind me and 34 more pounds to go. Really just looking for someone to email and share our successes, our failed attempts, our frustrations, and our joy of losing weight!

Hi, Iam new on here but not with J.C.I have been with J.C for an year now..I Join Body Media with the arm band 7 mos ago... when I started J.C my starting weight was 199 and I am still not at my goal weight i'm close but not that close. Iam 163lbs. my goal weight is 154lbs... I do realize it's takes progress because it has been a looong progress. Does anyone on here know what Iam talking about that can relate to how im feeling!!!???

Hi there,

I am in Fort Wayne also! I actually just started the program, but I would love to be a support for each other. I am 44 and mother of four kids. I am also a teacher. I am enjoying the program so far. I like the structure in my day versus having to figure out what and when I should eat. To get to the weight I would like to be, I need to lose 29 pounds. I completely believe I can do this!! I'm working on getting a lot more active and setting some goals for that.

Have a great day!!
Betsy

Welcome to the boards! We're happy you're here. Hope you'll come back often for support, ask questions, join in on discussions, etc. because we'd love to be there for you.

As for slow weight loss, I must be the "queen" - LOL. It took me over a year to lose 45 lbs., so, yes, I totally understand how you feel.

What does your JCC say about your slow loss? Are you exercising? Drinking a MINIMUM of 64 oz. of water a day? Sticking strictly to JC foods or have you started to do MOMOs?

There is usually a reason for a slow down like this and sometimes it's also age. The older we get, the slower the loss. At least that's the way it is for many of us.

If you can share what you think the problem is/are, perhaps we can come up with some solutions for you.
