in Getting Started
Hello I am looking for friends that are around my height and weight to help me ( each other ) stay motivated. I am currently down to 217.4. I am 7 weeks post partum and the day I had my daughter I weighed 240. My ultimate goal is 145 but my goal right this moment it to get to 200 by Christmas. And then 180 by March.

    Well, I'm 5'4 and weigh 268. I used to be higher. About a 1 1/2 yrs ago I peaked at 320. Mid September I was 288. So I'm slowly going down. I'm just looking for a "support partner". A friend to have and motivate each other. What do you think?

    hey, I'm 5'7 and I weighed 210 a year after my 2nd baby when I first started....I've been in maintenance now for over 5 years (through two more babies) 7 weeks isn't much time, make sure you're resting!

    I am 5'6" and gained 40lbs with each of my pregnancies. It's hard to gain and loose that weight more repeatedly. Feel free to friend me. I am trying to loose some pesky pounds that I haven't been able to loose over the last couple of years and tone up considerably. Especially my abs.

    This seems like my group. :-) I am 5'7", reached a lifetime high of 220 and stayed there a few years, now I'm 186, hoping to eventually get back down to the 160s. Would be happy to find some support buddies here. The holidays are going to be tough!

    Feel free to add me too, if you don't mind a shorty! I'm 5'2" and weigh 191, currently down from an all time high of 257. My goal weight is in the 150's; don't ask me a precise number because the last time I was in that range, I was in middle school!

    I'd love to have more friends to keep me accountable!

    You can add me. I'm 188 now high weight was 216 during pregnancy and 211 just being fat. Stayed at 190-195 for the last 2 years ( had my daughter) and now losing again. Gw is 130-135 but adjustable as I go down. Lol I have a lot of muscle under this fat.

    I'm 165cm(5'4" I think???) and 88kg(194lbs) I put on about 10kg(22lbs) during and after my pregnancy and have only lost 3kg in the last 3 months :-( I suck at losing weight! My goal is to be anywhere between 55-65kg.

    Good luck, you can do it. You just have to stay motivated and think about the shopping that will come with losing weight. That's one of my motivators ;)
