Looking for similar-stat weight loss buddy!

agartin

I have been on this journey before. I lost 60 lbs in my last efforts, between my first and second child. I didn't want my pregnancy to erase all my hard work, but of course, I let it. I'm now back at square one and I would love to find someone with similar stats to help hold me accountable.

I'm 5'2" - currently 190lbs. This is just too much weight for a girl my height to be carrying around!

I was incredibly happy at 130lbs. And even though that stupid BMI calculator said I was still overweight for my height, I looked and felt great.

I wish you all the luck. Of you've done it once, you can do it again! But I don't know what calculator you're using if it's saying your BMI is in the overweight range at 130. Unless your 5 foot and under 130 is in a healthy range.

I'm 5'2". The healthy BMI range for our height is 105-135 lbs.

Oh you're right. Like I said I haven't been at that weight in 3 years, I didn't look at it again. It's very close to "overweight" though. Yikes Right now, I'm obese.

Girl you've got this! I started around 180 at 5'1.5", currently maintaining and fluctuating between 126 and 132. Don't worry about labels too much as long as you're on the right track to being healthy

I am 5'3 and pre babies I was 125. Right now I'd be happy with 130. I have lost 30lbs since having my son last year, but I have 10 more to go. Feel free to add me.

I've been struggling w/ ups n downs for years..this time I'm making a "life style change"! I'm 4'11 3/4" Before kids I was 107 lbs size 3/4. Got preg w/ first child gained up to 169lbs (while preg) lost down to 139lbs after. Then gained, gained, gained. Got preg 2nd child at 192lbs. Gained up to 220 while preg, lost to 185lbs after preg. Gained, gained, gained up to 236lbs. Geez when I was 139lbs I thought I was huge...I only wish I weighed that now. I'm currently 200lbs. My first long goal is 150lbs then I will reevaluate since I would love to be 50lbs less than I am today! Please feel free to add me as a friend!

Well I'm no where near your size (I'm 5' 10") but I'm in a very similar situation. I lost 80 lbs before getting pregnant, I have 3 months left before baby is born and I've gained more than I was hoping already ☹ so I'll be looking to take it all of again. Feel free to friend me if you don't mind a tall girl

Helloiamashleigh

I haven't had any kids, but I too have lost weight then gained it all back. In my case it was because of depression and how the antidepressants affected my eating habits. I have been better for quite a while now, so now I have to get healthy again. Feel free to add me, I would love encouragement on loosing it all again.

QAPmom

Hi! I am 5' 1" and currently 210 with my highest weight ever being 237 so trust me I know what you mean about that being way too much weight for this height. My knees are tired of carrying the extra baggage around so I am working hard to get back to a healthy weight.

Best wishes to you and anyone is welcome to add me.

I am 5'0 and 160-165 two years after pregnancy. I am working to get down to 120, my high school weight. So feel free to add me.

I'm taller (5'6) but also in a similar position. I lost loads of weight after my 2nd baby, all the baby weight then an extra 30lbs or so, and I was so thin and fit, then I gained loads in my third pregnancy despite logging every day and exercising until 38 weeks. Now my baby is nearly 1(May 1st) and I still have 15-20lbs to go, having already lost 30 or so.
