    Hey girl! I am 35 yo and looking to lose about 30 more lbs before getting pregnant with #2. I gained about 75 lbs with my first pregnancy (YIKES!) and here I am over a year later still trying to get it off. My goal is March so I have some serious work cut out for me :-)

    heyya! I'm 26. I started really working at losing weight at the end of 2011... & at the beginning of this year I was down 64 pounds!!!! unfortunately I had several things happen in my personal life that shook me to my core & I gained about 20-25 pounds back. I'm slowing trying to get back into the mind-set that I was before all that happened & just trying to get back to where my clothes aren't tight anymore!! that's what really woke me up - tight clothes. I don't wanna go back to where I was!

    feel free to add me! I am one who supports all my friends & I expect the same in return! :)

    Hi! I am 35yo and would really like to join your group! This is my second day on MFP so I am still just trying to figure out the website. Over the last year I lost 60lbs but have gained back almost 20. I refuse to gain anymore of it! I hope to find some friends on here to help me stay accountable but to also share the struggles and wins with. I am from the south and dieting can be really hard-everything is fried or covered in gravy! LOL

    Feel fre to add me I have about 30 pounds to lose and am working on a 1500 cal diet split 40% protein 30% carbs, and 30% fat. I've been using the app for a while and have been up and down. Right now I'm on a supervised dosage of phentermine, luck for me I work with the doctor who is doing the supervision

    Hello, please add me! I was not happy with my weight before I got pregnant the first time. Then when I had my son, I slacked off for a year and a half before finally deciding to lose some weight. I lost around 18 pounds and got down to a few pounds below my pre-pregnancy weight. I was still working to lose an extra 10 pounds but then got pregnant again. My daughter is three months old now and I'm starting all over again with about 15 more pounds to go. I'm not going to lie, it is very difficult to exercise throughout a pregnancy. You would be doing yourself a huge favor if you got into healthy habits before becoming pregnant, not just for yourself but for the baby too :smile:

    Encouraging to read all your posts. I was using MFP this summer and as soon as I started losing, I quit. This is day 2 and I REALLY want to stick to it this time. Thanks for the support. Have a great day! :)

    Hey everyone!! I'm sorry Ive been gone for a couple of days, I've been in job training and things have been pretty hectic. I'm excited to meet so many of you, Id love for all of us to keep posting and updating our status on here, its a real encouragement. Currently I haven't really lost anything since lase week but I'm trying not to get disappointed, I know it can take some time to actually start loosing weight sometimes. I know I should probably choose an actual diet and stick to it, currently I've been just doing portion control, eating around 1200 calories a day, my mother in law brought me these zeal for life protein shake, they actually aren't that bad, I've been having them as my lunch, anyone else tried them?

    It seems like a lot of us on here have lost weight and then slowly gained it, others are starting fresh, but we all want the same thing, I know we can do it guys! I'm excited going into the next year because its going to be wonderful, it'll be rough but everyone's goals are deffinatly doable.
