Hi there, I've used this site once before and lost over 50 pounds. Then I had baby number two and gained it all back :( so I'd love to have some motivating friends looking to do the same! Who's with me??

    Hi! I'm pretty much exactly the same height as you! I'm down 23 lbs and looking to lose about 10 more before going into maintenance. I sent you a friend request. Good luck!

    I'd love to have you as a friend! I realistically can lose another 100lbs but 50lbs would be a great mini goal for me! I'm also 5'6.5. :smile:

    I'm the same height and I started my weight loss in September and lost 22 pounds but took a 3 month break. The great news is I only gained 1.5 pounds so I'm pretty happy about that! I have another 50 pounds to lose. Sending a FR.

    I'd like to be part of an active group since I'm very motivated...I'm 5'11 and have lost 21.5#'s 10 Wks with 57 more to get to my goal. I know it's going to be harder going forward but I'm hoping I'm in the groove.

    Hi! I love the attitude of this group...I'm looking for a shorter term goal to start...38 pounds...and I will move on from there. I feel like if I set smaller goals for myself they are more attainable for me. I have just started this journey today!!!! Would love to join...

    Hi Everyone!
    I've started today too! Would like to lose 80...but 50 is good to start! Lost all the weight in 2007...then regained when I got tired of so much protein. Stopped eating. Hair falling out. Not good. Hope to find a better balance this time!!

    I'm doing short term goals as well. Next one is 10 #'s by Mother's Day. That seems achievable with the changes I've made in my diet and my approach to losing weight. I love the MFP app, look forward to entering my food for the day and watching nutrients...wow is there a lot of sodium in foods I never thought as particularly salty. I stopped smoking last August and gave up my one a day Coke in January. I'm sad about giving up my nightly glass of wine but that was my choice to kick start my healthier eating habits. Facing knee replacement surgery this summer so I have a real motivator which I never had before but not as much physical activity as I'm used to doing...swimming is my thing.
