I don't know about you guys, but I genuinely think seeing my friends out and about is gonna motivate the heck outta me! So maybe we introduce ourselves, talk about our goals, and say an interesting fact?

    Good plan, though I dont know what to say :) I'm Amy; I'm (almost) 26. I've danced my whole life; and enjoy hiking/camping and occasionally surfing (but I rarely get to do these these days). Total fangirl too (watching/listening to tv shows/books is super helpful for me for exercise).

    I have a couple of chronic health conditions that are a pain health / fitness wise; one of which is pretty rare and requires me to do weird things with my diet (so if you see something that doesnt look right; thats possibly why).

    A few years back I put on a fair amount of weight (damn you office jobs). Last year I did a health kick and lost about half of what i'd put on. I want to lose the other half to get back to my pre-office job weight; and then a tiny bit more (or get closer to my ideal weight). I also really want to improve my cardio fitness and strength + flexibility (especially arm strength; I am *so* weak); and things like the mud/colour runs and raves are my major goals.

    Not quite sure what else to say, except that I'm totally up for poking/being poked and I really hope we all find this useful whatever our goals :)

    Same, not sure what to say :p

    Michael, 19. I'm a Firefighter and I guess that's part of it - fitness for fire season etc. I'm phyiscially always going to be big + solid (6"3 and a muscly *kitten* heritage wooh) but 120+ is not a place I'd like to be, so losing some of the gut I got when I stopped playing rugby is another goal.

    But yeah, cardio is the big one for me, and losing fat + not gaining /too/ much muscle... as weird as that is.

    Hey :)

    I'm Steph, I'm 20... ummm I basically stopped swimming after I stopped competing but didn't change how much I ate (and that was like 4 years ago) so I'm trying to re-train myself not to eat like a horse and lie around the house.
    Recently moved somewhere that has a gym so I'm going there 3-5 times a weeks :)
    Started a belly dance class with my friend this term too so I'm getting a bit of fun exercise in.
    Also just got a job as a swimming teacher so I want to look good in the pool and be able to keep up with the kids better.

    Hi. Tina here. 21.
    Been trying to get under 100kgs for a few years now and just haven't really succeeded. I'm also a firefighter and it would be particularly awesome if I could lose some weight and gain some fitness for this coming fire season. I've always been pretty strong and stocky but the weight is something I have to work on.
    I used to ride my bike and walk and dance with a choir I was in but now I've finished highschool and moved into Uni, excersicing and motivation has been sparse. I also have some awesome fatigue issues but most of the time (except recently) I can manage them.
    Motivation is something I really struggle with and I think it will be awesome having a few extra people on here to keep me interested and moving.

    Hello! I'm Amy, (if you are wondering yes I am main page admin Amy Leigh) and I am so excited I get to loose weight with you lovely people. I am 18 and during the HSC I put on 25 kg and now I am keen to get fit again. I was 60kg and now I am 85kg so yes I am not very happy in my skin at the moment. I do heaps of yoga and walking because I don't have a car. Hopefully with the thought of you guys watching what I do on here will help me to do the right thing and help me loose weight :)
