Hi everyone!
I'm Katie, 27 years old, and I have 50-60lbs to lose. I'm at 185 currently, started at 195 (10lbs down, woohoo!). I have 3 kids, ages 5, 3 and 1, and I'm done, so now I want to work towards having the body I've always wanted. I'm currently doing 1500 calories a day, and trying to work out at least 3 times a week, preferably 5 (but it's hard to fit it in with the kids at home). Looking to make friends here and get support!

    Hi Katie,
    I'm Laura. Just restarted using this site this week. I'm looking to lose 30 lbs to start. Hoping to start a family soon and need to get in better shape. Did my first workout in a long time last night. I'm also looking to find people on here to help keep me motivated. Add me as a friend if you want!

    Will do! I also just recently started working out again after a long hiatus, it's tough. We can do this though!

    I'm getting married in March and would love to lose 50-60lbs by then, too, Katie, but that would be likely impossible! I'm going for 40lbs for now, hopefully i can reach at least that much in 5months!!!

    I successfully lost 50 pounds on here two years ago until I got pregnant and now I'm back to square one after baby! We're at the same weight now and I would also love to drop about 50 pounds! :) friending you! Support is the best way to stay on track!

    I have about the same amount to lose and also have a 1-year-old. It's been tough for me to get started!

    Hi! I'm right there with you! I still have 2 boys at home who are in high school, very active in sports. Trying to keep up with their schedules and prepare health meals is a real challenge. I would love to join in supporting you and getting support back!
