I want to lose 20 pounds! I'm starting by trying to lose five pounds this month! Who is with me?

kimkimcoleman

I'm 5'6" and 145. 20 pounds would be awesome, I'll be happy to lose 10!

Mjtckwnow

Hey guys!
I am also about 5'4 or 5, looking to get down to 130-135. It's a struggle... I'm eating between 1400 and 1700 calories a day but I'm aware I need to lower it.

juliebam71

Awesome!!!!! How about we post our weight weekly and keep each other encouraged! Anyone have Fitbit?

girl_inflames

I'm 5 ft 6 - at 156 today (down 40 pounds). My original goal was to get to 155 but I'm looking to get to around 140-145 now. Maybe less so I can bulk up on muscle a little

kimkimcoleman

I have a fitbit! I've been running 4-5 days a week (the only way I have ever been able to lose weight) which also allows me to eat a little more which is nice and necessary because it makes me ravenous. I have been working exclusively from home for the past year which has definitely contributed to me gaining about 10 pounds. Gotta move more!

I'm your height and your goal weight and just looking to improve my health and lose recent weight gain due to illness. Happy to share my diary with you.

I'm 5'4 and started at 130 and now 115 ish, trying to lose some fat and gain muscle now. You can do it! I ate around 1200 to 1400 while I was losing and although it didn't come off fast it seems like it looking back. Stick with it and don't throw all your progress away if you over eat one time. That's like dropping your phone and then deciding well it dropped so I'm just going to smash it on the ground.

Strengths This Week: I've exercised everyday (in moderation due to injuries), drank a lot of water, completing 2nd week of no-gluten, no added sugars, no alcohol, no starchy carbs, no processed foods.

Struggles This Week: Still dealing with (4th week) Achilles tendonitis in both legs but it is improving plus strained quad muscle still a lingering problem. Due to these I've had to scale my running way back and focus more on strength straining & stretching.

I'm 5'7 and 147 pounds. Just joined, and looking for people in a similar situation. I have been this weight since I put on 1 stone and feel like I just can't budge the scales.

I'm 5'3, 148 now (was 132 in Sept). Looking for friends to help motivate me too. Feel free to add me!

I'm 5"3 and 150 right now. I had a baby 3 months ago and want to get back down to 130ish. Anybody can feel free to add me... I'm not new to weight loss, I lost 100 lbs after my first baby and I'm 100% determined to get back to my old fitness level!

FitVegetarian14516

5"4 and 155! 33 pounds down and 30 to lose you can do it if you believe!

BlueberryWatermelon

You can do it!!

I'm also 5'4. Started at 140, currently at 132, with a goal weight of 120. I've lost about 8 pounds in a little over two months. It feels really slow, but at least it's progress. I'm hoping to hit the halfway mark before I leave for vacation in two weeks! eeek!

My goal is 1300/day plus exercise calories. Feel free to add me!

haleyalenexx

Right there with you!
I am 5'3. Starting weight was 152, I'm down to 147.5 last time i checked and my goal weight is 130, but ultimately I'd like to try and get to 125.
Its tough to stay motivated but this app has really helped me a lot.

NovaDuck

I'm 5'3". Already lost 40lb but still have 26 or so to go. Feel free to add me.

I'm 5'4", down almost 33lbs since the start of the year. I'm now at 147 lbs, aiming for 135lbs. As I get closer to my goal, my weight loss has slowed, but I am okay with that and plan on trying to focus more on exercise and fitness than weight loss. I'm in no hurry and don't want to have to buy smaller clothes again until I need a fall/ winter wardrobe. I don't do well following a strict diet regimen and have just been eating smaller portions of the same food I cook for the family which works for me.

JDixon852019

5'7 here, I spent a year adjusting my workout routine and trying to eat clean (did Keto for 6 months to kill my sugar and soda addiction). I started using a food scale May 1 and have lost 17lbs since then.
SW: ~155-160
CW: 131
GW: 118-120

Once I hit my goal weight (or in the Fall which ever comes first) I plan to bulk and do hard core strength training. Right now I do bodyweight exercises, run and play volleyball on a rec league.

Hi! I'm 5'4 and 144 lbs currently. Looking to lose about 20 lbs. I'm with ya!

tink8

Hello, I am 5'0 and am currently 143lbs. Down from 158lbs. I gained weight during pregnancy and have been struggling to lose it. But I'm getting there. Although I've lost 15lbs so far I still have 27lbs to go to reach my target. It's been nice in a way to see all these other posts from you guys, knowing I'm not alone in the struggle. It's not just me x

Charlene072385

I am 140 looking to get around 122-126. I am also 5'4". I have a Fitbit Charge HR and have been trying to eat 500-700 calories less than what it tells me I burn. Before I gained these 20lbs, I ate what it said I burned and maintained my weight pretty well.

Caroline393

I'm 5'3" trying to go from 153 to around 120. I've lost 5 lbs so far. I've never added anybody on here before, so I'm not sure how the friends thing works, but I'm game if anyone wants to add me!
