5’7, 211 lbs looking for weight loss buddy

sjohnson2341

I’m 20 years old and in my junior year of college. Over the past year or so I have gained about 25 lbs and am looking to lose about 60 lbs and get to a healthy weight before next summer. Hoping to find a weight loss buddy with similar starting weight or goal to keep me accountable and motivated!

Hey!
I'm 26, 5'7 and 206 lbs. Also looking to lose about 60 lbs - I've been going thru a divorce and with the stress and depression, not to mention a crazy work schedule, found myself gaining quite a bit of weight (roughly 35 lbs) and am now working on losing it.

Me too

I need to not fall off the wagon (again!). I have a family reunion in November and they can be a little blunt so I'm here to kick my own butt. Every. Day.

Hey, feel free to add me as a friend. I am also looking to make friends as a great support team. Doing the diet stuff is hard on your own. Its been hard for me when my family and friends arent into doing all the diet stuff i am doing. They are supportive of what i am doing but not the type of support i need to keep motivated. Also id like to help someone else on their journey as well.

Hello all, I could use support as well. I am looking to lose weight as well as improve over all health. I am in my 50’s so it sounds like I am much older than most on this chain but I think the principles are the same regardless of age. Big picture for me would be to lose 50 lbs but I plan to tackle it in smaller bites. Goal 1 for me is to lose 20lbs and work out at least 3 days a week. Would love some buddy’s for the journey!

I’m in! 214 5’6 and need to shed these pounds. I’m sick of not feeling like me. Please add me because I’m clueless how to add people. I can use all the help I can get.

Hi! It's nice to find people in the same height/weight "category". I'm about 5'8 and just weighed in at 227 lbs this morning, and I just need the motivation to finally lose it and start feeling better- feeling better physically and feeling better about myself. I'm 26 and was thin/average for most of my life (about 150-160 lbs), but I've been in a pretty dark depression for about 3 years and "let myself go". Hoping to lose the 60ish lbs I've gained (mostly in the last 18 months) to get my life, health, and confidence back. I just love ice cream so much!

Hi! I’m similar too! 5’7”, 207 this morning (from 213 a few weeks ago!). My first mini-goal is 190, then 159 (the top of normal BMI), and we’ll see from there . I’d love some new friends!

Almost 26 here. Currently 207 but 3 weeks ago I weighed in at 215 (about 15 pounds more than I thought sadly). I’m 5’2” and carry my body weight a bit....differently than the typical person my height (large bust, muscular legs, decently sized rear end) so I’m not super following what the internet says my BMI should be as my proportions have been VERY hourglass since I was 13 years old and nothing really accounts for that IMO. I’m hoping to lose about 60 more to get to where I was 4 years ago!

Hey! I'm 221 lbs and 5'6 I've gained just over 2st in the two years ive been with my now fiance. I also didn't lose the baby weight I gained 5 years ago, but added more lol. (179 lbs pre pregnancy)
I can no longer procrastinate and live in leggings year in year out, it's such a struggle to eat healthy, but it's more of a struggle being this weight. Hoping to get down to a UK size 8 Feel free to add me

Hi everyone! I’m 5’8”, started at 215lbs and currently just under 200. I’m 26 and the upcoming semester will (hopefully) be my last semester in law school and first semester in business/economics - I live in Finland, so the college system is a bit different. I’m always open for new active MFP friends, so add me

Hi everyone!
I have started the path to get myself to a place a feel the most happy in all possible ways.
And being a part of a support team is definitely a better way to motivate yourself further.
So far I’ve lost about 5 kg (about 11 pounds).

Feel free to add me! 👍

I started 217lbs and am 5”1. I am struggling continuing losing weight recently because I am lacking motivation and holding myself accountable. 😕 Send me a request if you want to help each other! It’s a way to be held accountable! 😉
